Listed buildings in Burnley

[1] The number of looms in the town rose from 9,000 in 1850 to 79,000 in 1900, and more large mills were built in the early years of the 20th century.

Many of the outlying areas continued to be civil parishes, but the town of Burnley itself is unparished.

The listing buildings in the unparished area of Burnley reflect its history.

Later there are structures associated with the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, and with the East Lancashire Railway, which arrived in the town toward the middle of the 19th century.

There are also the buildings common to all towns, such as churches, schools, public houses, shops, banks, offices, a music hall, structures in public parks, and civic buildings.
