Entwistle is a village in the civil parish of North Turton, in the Blackburn with Darwen unitary authority area in the ceremonial county of Lancashire, England.

Its name derives from the Old English ened and twisla which means a river fork frequented by ducks.

[1][2] Entwistle was originally a township in the chapelry of Turton which was part of the large ecclesiastical parish of Bolton le Moors in the hundred of Salford.

The south facing front of the Hall still has many Tudor features including mullioned windows with dripstone headings.

[7] Nearby streams have been dammed to form the Wayoh and Turton and Entwistle Reservoirs.
