Horwich itself offers a choice of nurseries and there are both primary and secondary schools. Please note that that Bolton School is around is around 4.5 miles away and the bus route for the school passes the end of the road (on Chorley Old Road).
In terms of commercial amenities, Horwich centre itself is under 1 mile away. The popular centre includes free parking and a classic range of shops, such as butchers, bakers, green grocers, some small supermarkets and an abundance of cafes and restaurants. Larger retail outlets are positioned at the Middlebrook retail complex close to the motorway link which is just under three miles away. The closest train stations which connect to Manchester are between 2 and 3 miles.
