Welcome to Lancashire — England’s red rose county, where mills meet moors and the M6 keeps Preston and Manchester firmly connected. With around 1.5 million residents who know the shortcut past Blackpool Tower better than any sat‑nav, Lancashire blends industrial heritage with seaside buzz.

Schools That Actually Impress

Lancaster Royal Grammar, Clitheroe Royal Grammar, and Stonyhurst College (the independent heavyweight) all carry strong reputations. Translation: your kids will get a solid education, and you’ll have plenty of parents comparing exam results at the school gates.

Economy With a Balance

Lancashire’s economy mixes manufacturing, aerospace, and energy with growing service and creative hubs in Preston and Lancaster. Add in commuters heading to Manchester and Liverpool, and you’ve got a county that’s practical, connected, and quietly thriving.

Things to Do (Besides Timing the M6 Traffic)

• Blackpool Tower & Pleasure Beach – seaside fun with arcades, rides, and illuminations.

• Forest of Bowland – rolling hills and walking trails.

• Local favourites – Lancashire hotpot for foodies, Burnley FC for matchday buzz, and canal walks for fresh air and photo ops.

Moving Services That Keep It Simple

At M&G, we can’t fix the M6 bottleneck, but we can make moving day a whole lot easier:

• Full packing services

• Secure, insured storage (ideal if your chain moves slower than traffic at Broughton Interchange)

• Local, national, European & overseas moves (because sometimes Lancashire is just a stepping stone to Los Angeles)
