The Green Man at Inglewhite is a public house in Inglewhite, Lancashire, England. The pub, which was established in 1809, has been owned since January 2017 by Mikoh Inns, which also owns The White Bull in Bilsborrow, Lancashire, about three miles to the west. In 1986, Inglewhite was designated a conservation area. It was appraised again a decade later. A 2011 review "re-evaluates its special architectural and historic interest in line with the requirements of the Town & Country (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 using the latest best practice guidance produced by English Heritage." In 2011, Preston City Council designated The Green Man one of eight sites of special interest in the village.The building is also notable for its use of the now-rare Westmorland slate on its roof.

Whitechapel is a tiny hamlet in the civil parish of Goosnargh in Lancashire, England. It lies on the border of the Forest of Bowland near the foot of Beacon Fell, and close to the neighbouring village of Inglewhite. Its name is marked as White Chapel on some maps. The area was known as "Threlfall" in the Domesday Book. A tiny 27×13-foot private chapel was built for the Threlfall family in Elizabethan times, and was rebuilt as St James' Church about 1738. The churchyard contains a sundial dated 1745 which is a Grade II listed building.The name "Whitechapel" came into use in the early nineteenth century, named after the church. It was originally a part of Goosnargh ecclesiastical parish, but acquired independent parish status in 1846.The village primary school originated in 1705, within the church, acquiring its own building in 1810.On Pancake Day the children of Whitechapel, Inglewhite and the surrounding area keep alive an age-old tradition that was once more widespread in the Goosnargh, Garstang and Fylde areas of Lancashire. They visit local households and ask "please a pancake", to be rewarded with oranges or sweets. It is thought the tradition arose when farm workers visited the wealthier farm and manor owners to ask for pancakes or pancake fillings. In 1888, Richard Cookson wrote, "The children go from house to house and are treated with ginger-bread, toffies and other sweet meats."WICE (Whitechapel and Inglewhite Community Enterprises) is a community organisation to enable a sustainable and resilient community.
