Myerscough and Bilsborrow
Myerscough and Bilsborrow is a civil parish in the Borough of Wyre in Lancashire, England. It was formed on 1 April 2003 as a merger of the former parishes of Bilsborrow and Myerscough,〔("Bulletin of Changes to Local Authority Elections, Names and Areas in England: 2002-2003" ) (The Wyre (Parishes) Order 2003), Office of the Deputy Prime Minister, November 2003; accessed 12 May 2011〕 and lies on the eastern border of the Fylde plain.
The largest settlement is the village of Bilsborrow. The hamlet of Brock is immediately to the north of Bilsborrow, and the hamlet of Myerscough lies about a mile (2 km) to the west of Bilsborrow. The River Brock flows east-to-west along the northern border of the former Bilsborrow parish and through the former Myerscough parish.
The Lancaster Canal, West Coast Main Line, A6 road and M6 motorway all pass north-to-south through the parish. There are canal moorings at Bilsborrow, and a marina at the Barton Grange Garden Centre to the north. When the Lancaster and Preston Junction Railway opened in 1840, it built Roebuck railway station next to the village, but in 1849 it was replaced by Brock railway station, half-a-mile (1 km) to the north, which survived until 1939.
Myerscough College is a higher and further education college, originally an agricultural college, but now diversifying into other subjects.
