'''Pendleton''' is a small village and parish in the hundred of [[Blackburnshire]], in northern [[Lancashire]]. It is close to the towns of [[Whalley, Lancashire|Whalley]] and [[Clitheroe]]. The parish lies on the north west side of Pendle Hill below the Nick o' Pendle. The village is just off the A59 [[Liverpool]] to [[York]] main road, since the construction of the Clitheroe By-Pass. Older roads through the parish include one from Clitheroe to Whalley which passes through the Standen area and another to [[Burnley]] which passes Pendleton Hall.{{sfn|Farrer and Brownbill|1911|pp=392-396|ps=}} <br />
<br />
[[Pendleton Brook]] runs down the centre of Main Street in the village. The village pub, the Swan with Two Necks won the Campaign for Real Ale's national pub of the year award in 2013.<ref>{{Cite news |url=http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2014/feb/12/camra-swan-with-two-necks-lancashire-national-pub-year |title=Camra crowns Swan with Two Necks in Lancashire national pub of the year |author=Rebecca Smithers |date=19 August 2015 |work=The Guardian |location=London}}</ref> <br />

==History==<br />
The brief details of the [[Blackburnshire]] hundred in the [[Domesday Book|Domesday]] survey, mention Pendleton with King Edward holding half a hide of land here.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.domesdaybook.co.uk/lancashire1.html#blackburn |title=Domesday Book Online |work=domesdaybook.co.uk |accessdate=18 August 2015}}</ref>{{sfn|Farrer and Brownbill|1911|pp=392-396|ps=}}<br />
<br />
Wymondhouses (an old farm in the south of the parish) was purchased in 1667 by the Nonconformist preacher Thomas Jollie. He had a meeting-place licensed in 1672, later building a chapel that was still in-use until the 1860s.{{sfn|Farrer and Brownbill|1911|pp=392-396|ps=}}<ref>{{National Heritage List for England|num= 1165082|desc= No. 2 Wymondhouses, Pendleton|access-date= 18 August 2015|mode=cs2|fewer-links=x}}</ref><br />
<br />
Pendleton also has an interesting history related to traditional folk customs and the witchcraft persecutions. A book was written on this subject entitled ''The Pendle Witches'' by William Harrison Ainsworth, published 1849. Doreen McGlashan, born Doreen Wilson, a Pendleton native (now living in Australia, aged 92) states that as a child in the 1920s there was frequent talk of witches and witchcraft in the village, and that she & her siblings were kept indoors on certain Saturdays because of "witches Sabbaths" happening in the town on those days. She also recounts large May Day celebrations in her youth which included dancing around a maypole, and states that as a girl she specifically remembers "pretty girls" often being suspected of witchcraft by the villagers. Most likely all such folk beliefs and witchcraft stories have by now been forgotten or lost by the residents of Pendleton, except perhaps by people who possess family lore dating back to the early 20th century.<br />
