The people of Great Harwood used to earn their living by farming or hand loom weaving. Heys Farm, Dean Lane, Whalley Banks, is one of the earliest farms to be leased, records go back to the 17th century. It faces the green fertile valley of the Calder, and the farm land has been cultivated for centuries. The chimney breast built on the outside of the house, provided room for the wide open fireplace of those times.
