Bacup is a historic market town situated in the Rossendale Valley of Lancashire, England. Founded during the Industrial Revolution, the town played a significant role in the textile industry, particularly in cotton spinning and weaving. The town's architecture reflects its industrial heritage, with numerous well-preserved Victorian-era buildings and former mills dotting the landscape.

Bacup retains much of its historical character and is notable for being home to the Britannia Coconut Dancers, a unique folk dance tradition that has been practiced in the town since the mid-19th century. The town center was designated as a conservation area in 1971 due to its well-preserved historic buildings and distinctive character.
