Leyland is a town with a strong industrial identity that has managed to hold onto a sense of community space as it has grown. Located just south of Preston in Lancashire, it remains famous as the home of the Leyland bus and lorry, and that heritage is still visible today, both in the presence of the British Commercial Vehicle Museum and the various business parks that drive the local economy. Geographically, it’s a practical spot; you’ve got the M6 on your doorstep and the West Coast Main Line running through the station, making it easy to get up to the Lakes or down to Manchester. The heart of the town is really defined by Worden Park, a massive expanse of former estate land with woodland walks and kitchen gardens that gives the place a much greener feel than you might expect for an industrial town. Most of the practical amenities are clustered around Hough Lane and Towngate, where the local shops and the traditional market building still form the main hub of daily life.
