Dinckley is a small village and civil parish located in the Ribble Valley, in Lancashire, England. Owing to the limited extent of the population details from the Census 2011 are maintained within the civil parish of Billington and Langho. The parish is situated on the south side of the River Ribble, Script error: No such module "convert". north of Blackburn.[1] The northern boundary of the parish is formed by the River Ribble, and the eastern boundary by Park Brook and Dinckley Brook.[2] The parish is part of the Langho ward, which is represented on Ribble Valley Borough Council by two councillors, both from the Conservative Party.[3]
Dinckley Ferry was a rowing boat which crossed the river[4] connecting the village to Hurst Green. The ferry was replaced by a suspension bridge in the 1950s.[5]
Etymology
The name Dinckley is first attested in 1246, in the forms Dunkthele, Dinkedelay, and Dinkidele, along with Dinkedelegh in 1257. It comes from the Common Brittonic words corresponding to modern Welsh Script error: No such module "Lang". ("fort") and Script error: No such module "Lang". ("woodland"); thus the first part of the name once meant "fort by the wood". Old English-speakers later took this name as the basis for a new one ending in the Old English word Script error: No such module "Lang". ("cleared land in woodland"); that name thus meant "the cleared land at Dincoed".[6][7]Template:Rp
