Kirk Mill is an early example of an Arkwright-type cotton mill and a grade II listed building in Chipping, Lancashire, in Ribble Valley, to the north of Preston, Lancashire, England. It was built in the 1780s on the site of a corn mill dating from at least 1544. The mill continued spinning cotton using water frames and then throstles until 1886, when it was sold and became HJ Berry's chairmaking factory. It was powered by a 32 ft (9.8 m) waterwheel which continued in use, generating electricity until the 1940s. Chipping really thrived during the Industrial Revolution when there were seven mills located along Chipping Brook. The last survivor was Kirk Mill, the chair making factory of HJ Berry, but in 2010 the company went into administration, the factory closed, and on 7 March 2011 the works were bought by SCPi Bowland LtdSignificant refurbishment works including a full re-roof, stone cleaning, re-pointing with lime mortar, removal of incongruous late additions and the introduction of structural steelwork were completed in spring 2017

Ye Horns Inn is a restaurant and public house at Horns Lane in Goosnargh parish near Preston, Lancashire, England.Located near the Forest of Bowland, Ye Horns Inn has welcomed locals and travellers alike over the years. Originally a coaching inn called the Buck Horns, dating back to 1782, it was originally part of a working farm.During the inter-war period the interior was partially refitted which coincided with render and mock timber being applied to the exterior. This, and the creation of dining rooms, is thought to be an attempt to provide an "improved" pub, popular at the time and stemming from a desire to cut back on the amount of drunkenness associated with conventional Victorian and Edwardian public houses. Fast forward a few decades and the building was granted a Grade II listing in January 2017 based on its architectural value and the retention of the pub’s interior. Its distinctive characteristics, prior to renovation 2018–2022, earned it a listing on the Campaign for Real Ale's National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors. It was one of only three pubs in the UK where the public could sit behind the bar in the area from which the bar staff serve. However, the Campaign for Real Ale claims that the renovations from 2018 to 2022 appear to have damaged historic parts of the interior without listed building consent.

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.
