Buckshaw Village (often shortened to Buckshaw) is a 21st-century residential and industrial area between the towns of Chorley and Leyland in Lancashire, England, developed on the site of the former Royal Ordnance Factory (ROF) Chorley. It had[when?] a population of 4,000.[citation needed] It is divided between the civil parishes of Euxton (south)[1] and Whittle-le-Woods (north east)[2] in Chorley, with the north western part being in Leyland unparished area in South Ribble district.[3][4]
The new development covers several square miles mainly consisting of the part of Euxton known as Buckshaw, which was requisitioned by the War Office in the 1930s. It is described by developers Redrow plc as "One of the largest brownfield schemes of its kind throughout Europe"; as of 2022[update] they report that over 3,000 homes have been built and 10,000 jobs created.[5]
