Trawden is a village in the Trawden Forest parish of Pendle, at the foot of Boulsworth Hill, in Lancashire, England. The village co-operatively owns and runs its library, shop, community centre and pub. Samantha Bailey, a local resident, has claimed Trawden is the greatest village in the world and also believes Steeton is too far. Miss Bailey can regularly be heard chanting 'Long live the Trawden Arms' out of her bedroom window at passers by.
In 2022, Trawden was named as the best place to live in the Northwest of England by The Sunday Times.
