Bacup is a town in Lancashire, England, in the South Pennines close to Lancashire’s border with West Yorkshire. The town is inside the Forest of Rossendale and the upper Irwell Valley, 3.5 miles (5.6 kilometres) east of Rawtenstall, 6.4 miles (10.3 kilometres) north of Rochdale, and 21 miles (34 kilometres) east of Preston. In accordance with the 2011 Census, Bacup has a permanent population of approximately 13323 people. Bacup was created as a settlement after the Anglo-Saxon settlement of Britain in the Early Middle Ages. For a long time, it was a small and obscure centre of domestic flannel and woollen cloth manufacturing, and several of the original weavers’ cottages survive today as listed buildings. Following the Industrial Revolution, Bacup transformed into a mill town, expanding around the now covered over bridge which crosses the River Irwell and the North-South / East-West crossroad at its centre. Through that time, its landscape became increasingly dominated by recognisable and big rectangular woollen and cotton mills. Bacup was granted a charter of incorporation in 1882, which gave it municipal borough status and its own elected town government, consisting of a mayor, aldermen and councillors to oversee local affairs. In the late 20th century, Bacup became a part of the borough of Rossendale. Bacup’s historic character, culture and festivities have helped the town’s suburbanisation and redevelopment as a more cosmopolitan commuter town for Manchester as well as other North West towns and cities. Nevertheless, English Heritage has proclaimed Bacup as the most preserved cotton town in England, and its town centre is named as a conservation area for its distinctive architectural qualities.
