Without cross county bias, Burnley is definitely in Lancashire but not far from the Yorks/Lancs border. If you find yourself in Burnley, don't worry too much. You could be back in Yorkshire within about 20/30 minutes.

ah Burnley where chips are more expensive than the houses.

like people have said Burnley is deffo Lancs, but only a few miles away from W Yorks.

reminds of the Blackburn Rovers chant
yer mum's yer dad
yer dad's yer mum
yer interbred
yer Burnley scum

As a lifelong Reading supporter I'm hoping that the town of Burnley has little to shout about by 10pm tomorrow. whistle

How dare you even ask? Of course that slum filled cesspit of unspeakable awfulness is not in Yorkshire. Whatever next?

Yep, I looked and wondered why the OP asked is Burley (as in in-Wharfedale) in Yorkshire!

There's a bit of difference between Burley in Wharfedale and Burnley.

I should know I live in one of them.

Has anyone thought that the OP might just have been a slight pisstake? Anyone who has sufficient intelligence to switch on a computer and post on a forum would either know that Burnley is not in Yorkshire or have the nounce to discover for himself that it isn't rather than posting an urgent request for info.

Just a thought, apologies for keeping the pointless thread going even longer than it deserved.

Since when has it been necessary to apologise for keeping a pointless thread going? Most of them on Pistonheads rely on pointless chatter, and are all the better for it smile
