Lancashire is, broadly, made up of three different regions:
East Lancashire or Pennine Lancashire, where it merges with Greater Manchester. This is the heartland of the Industrial Revolution, with its small mill-towns and the larger cities of Burnley and Blackburn, but with attractive moorland areas between the valleys.
West Lancashire, the low-lying, agriculturally rich coastal plains that merge in the south with Liverpool and Merseyside and include, further north, the seaside resorts centred on Blackpool, and the Fylde.
North and Central Lancashire, a largely unspoiled and very attractive rural area that includes the Forest of Bowland, and Pendle Hill.
