Chipping, in the Ribble Valley, has a gorgeous church, a haunted Inn, and one of the longest continuously operated stores in England, a village shop and post office. The Ribble Valley is a rural haven of breathtaking beauty, various natural habitats, and historical legend, a place of almost unequalled serenity where adults and children can enjoy the simple pleasures of the outdoors. Nearby Clitheroe has many speciality stores, including a sausage shop with 75 varieties. This great area has award-winning restaurants and country hotels around the valley, as well as agricultural exhibitions and day festivals.
