I'm off oop north on Monday.[1] wrt Rivington, would I be on the right lines to look a round a bit, whereupon I might tee things up nicely, and not seem so green? Hopefully this will remove the mote from my eye, and I'll be able to join the club, assuming I'm on the ball. [1] All points north of Lancs/Lincs, hopefully. -- | ___ Salad Dodger |/ \ _/_____\_ GL1500SEV/CBR1100XXX/KH500A8/TS250C |_\_____/_| ..67012../..15994.../..3157./.19406 (>|_|_|<) TPPFATUICG#7 DIAABTCOD#9 YTC#4 PM#5 |__|_|__| BOTAFOT #70 BOTAFOF #09 two#11 WG* \ |^| / IbW#0 & KotIbW# BotTOS#6 GP#4 \|^|/ ANORAK#17 '^' RBR-Visited:43 Pts: 870 Miles:3116

Sorry, Pete. Trying to check if I've got the right "folly tower, near Blackrod" seeing as how it ISN'T the one in Rivington. -- | ___ Salad Dodger |/ \ _/_____\_ GL1500SEV/CBR1100XXX/KH500A8/TS250C |_\_____/_| ..67012../..15994.../..3157./.19406 (>|_|_|<) TPPFATUICG#7 DIAABTCOD#9 YTC#4 PM#5 |__|_|__| BOTAFOT #70 BOTAFOF #09 two#11 WG* \ |^| / IbW#0 & KotIbW# BotTOS#6 GP#4 \|^|/ ANORAK#17 '^' RBR-Visited:43 Pts: 870 Miles:3116
Just practise putting the 'Wing in the car park and you can't miss it. Watch/listen out as you drive in though, as its a fair way across
Are you having another look at Nesscliffe? Having read up about the village a bit more there seems like a much better landmark (one with a unique and interesting history) than the one listed.
HK sounds like an interesting character. As does the horse he rode in on. The only cross I could find in LN was virtually a clone of the one in N. Its only virtue is that it is "near" rather than "in".
No crosses near me, they tend to make my hackles raise. And the whole crunmbling into dust in sunlight is abugger as well.
Ok, so no cross. <Looks at list> Howabout a Cucumber & Strawberry Steam Engine? No?; The Fall of Icarus?; The Dog Stone?; Totem Pole? You must have something? Oh I know, its the Squire's Pump isn't it?
b**ggr and thrice b**ggr Twice through blackrod, two hours today & I drive past that place today thinking a quick, "nah, won't be there". Ho hum, Manchester again next weekend. Tim S
Sounds like you may twig on, if not initially, if you look at my other post and finish up in the right ball park. And thats a ruby of a clue.
It still took some finding, even when I got there. Luckily the lady who lives in the last house down the road knew where it was. -- | ___ Salad Dodger |/ \ _/_____\_ GL1500SEV/CBR1100XXX/KH500A8/TS250C |_\_____/_| ..69339../..16127.../..3180./.19406 (>|_|_|<) TPPFATUICG#7 DIAABTCOD#9 YTC#4 PM#5 |__|_|__| BOTAFOT #70 BOTAFOF #09 two#11 WG* \ |^| / IbW#0 & KotIbW# BotTOS#6 GP#4 \|^|/ ANORAK#17 '^' RBR-Visited:74 Pts:1630 Miles:5400
