About Bacup

Bacup is Rossendale's most remote town, sitting at 800 feet above sea level on the Lancashire-Yorkshire Pennine watershed. Despite its northerly location, south-facing hillside terraces produce surprisingly strong solar yields. The town's close-knit community and low property prices make solar an increasingly attractive way to cut above-average energy bills.

Bacup is located approximately 14.0 miles from Burnley town centre, within the Rossendale borough of Burnley. The area uses OL13 postcodes and has a population of around 14,000. Regular buses to Rawtenstall and Rochdale; steep Pennine moorland setting
