Discovering Waterfoot Yard The Community Cafe That Brings the Valley Together

Waterfoot Yard - Community cafe and co-operative maker's space

Disha and Neil welcome you to Waterfoot Yard!

Built in the 1840s as a stone-built family home and later serving as Waterfoot’s public library, their building has been part of the town’s story for nearly two centuries.

Today it continues that legacy as a welcoming café, serving coffee, cakes, sandwiches and burgers, while also housing a cooperative space where local makers share their work. Many of the products are handmade right here in Rossendale, making it a true hub of community, craft and good food.
