Welcome to Keenans Estate Agents

The town began to develop in the early medieval period as a number of farming hamlets surrounded by manor houses and royal forests, and has held a market for more than 700 years.  During the Industrial Revolution it became one of Lancashire's most prominent mill towns: at its peak was one of the world's larget producers of cotton cloth, and a major centre of engineering.  The town is surrounded by countryside and villages such as Worsthorne, Cliviger and Hurstwood have a reputation as a regional centre of excellence for the manufacturing and aerospace industries.  Burnley has retained a strong manufacturing sector, and has strong economic links with the cities of Manchester and Leeds, as well as neighbouring towns along the M65 corridor.
