About Darwen
- Darwen Tower was built in 1898 to celebrate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee and to mark the public's victory in a legal battle to secure the right to walk on Darwen Moor — one of the earliest access-to-land victories in English history, predating the Kinder Scout mass trespass by over 30 years.
- India Mill in Darwen has the tallest mill chimney in Lancashire at 303 feet, built in 1867 in the style of an Italian campanile. It is now a Grade II* listed building and a striking landmark visible for miles across the Pennine foothills.
- Sunnyhurst Wood, a Victorian pleasure ground on the edge of Darwen, was donated to the town in 1902 and contains a reservoir, a visitor centre in a converted keeper's cottage, and miles of woodland walks — one of the most visited green spaces in East Lancashire.
