About Wyresdale
Wyresdale is a rural neighbourhood on the Bowland fringe where you get countryside living with decent road access to Lancaster and the M6. You'll need a car though — buses are thin on the ground and there's no train station. Crime rates are well below the UK average and dropping, and local schools like Forton Primary and Scorton CE Primary are rated Good by Ofsted. Most homes here are detached properties averaging £375,250, which puts them mid-table compared to surrounding villages. Rents are lower than you'll find in nearby Ribble Valley and Ellel. The air quality is excellent, and with over a third of residents working from home, it's a good fit if you're after space, quiet and a tight-knit community rather than city life.
