Bacup is a town in Lancashire, England, in the South Pennines near to Lancashire’s boundary line with West Yorkshire. The town is inside the Forest of Rossendale and the upper Irwell Valley, 3.5 miles (5.6 km) east of Rawtenstall, 6.4 miles (10.3 km) north of Rochdale, and 21 miles (34 km) to the east of Preston. As per the 2011 Census, Bacup has a resident population of about 13323 inhabitants. Bacup was established as a settlement following the Anglo-Saxon settlement of Britain in the Early Middle Ages. For centuries, it was a modest and not well known centre of domestic flannel and woollen cloth manufacturing, and a lot of the original weavers’ cottages survive as listed buildings. After the Industrial Revolution, Bacup became a mill town, expanding around the now covered bridge which crosses the River Irwell and the North-South / East-West crossroad at its centre. Through that time, its landscape became dominated by distinctive and substantially sized 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, including a mayor, aldermen and councillors to oversee local affairs. During the late 20th century, Bacup became a part of the borough of Rossendale. Bacup’s historic character, culture and festivities have led to the town’s suburbanisation and redevelopment as a more cosmopolitan commuter town for Manchester along with 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 designated as a conservation area for its unique architectural qualities.
