Scroll down for photos and a description of the walk....
About Time Too
Start time of 19:20hrs from Barley. The car park "closes" at 9pm, so it's wise not to park behind the barrier if you think you could be on a late finish. Lid down for the first time this year!

Sunset on Pendle
On the way up from Boar Clough, there are two large piles of stones. In order to create a photo opportunity, I built a little statue and lit a candle on top!

Pendle Walkers
Two chaps came along at just the right moment....
Gadget Time
The walkers started playing with their gadgets and gave me another opportunity for a photo.
Hazy Sunset
We've waited long enough for a hazy sunset!
