Inglewhite is a small village in the parish of Goosnargh in Lancashire, England. It lies at the intersection of the roads from Longridge to Garstang and from Broughton to Beacon Fell.
Etymology
The origin of the name Inglewhite is uncertain. One popular interpretation is that the name means 'white fire', from the Gaelic aingeal meaning 'fire'. It is thought to refer to will-o'-the-wisps that were once prevalent on the village green.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
History
The road names of Button Street and Silk Mill Lane indicate industries that once thrived near the village.[1] Inglewhite Congregational Church, on Silk Mill Lane, was founded in 1819 and constructed in 1826.[2] The village forge, which made ammunition boxes during the World War I, closed in 1992. The building housed a café for several years but is now closed.[1]
The parish church of St James, in the neighbouring village of Whitechapel, dates from 1738. It was enlarged in 1818 and restored in 1889[3] and has been a Grade II listed building since 1986.[4] The church is part of the Fellside Team Ministry.[5]
