Cars on Pendle?

It is most unusual to see such a motor vehicle on the slopes of Pendle Hill. These are the wall rebuilders and have found a handy way of getting to the site, but I'm not sure whether this form of motoring is permitted up here.

I had intended to merge this short report with another from 31st October, but the latter one did not take place due to high winds and general disinterest. I have a "date" target for the year and I thought that 26th Oct would help, but it was actually 28th Oct which would have qualified and Sunday 28th was dire!

Robbed of any degree of interest by the dull sky. I proceeded down the steps and bumped into a couple from Barley who have seen this website. Thanks Nigel and Cheryl for your kind remarks!

N & C

Walkers: Just Me.

Time taken: 1hr 18mins over a distance of about 2.5 miles.

Route: Roadside, up the track, along the top and down the steps.

Weather and conditions: Dull and cloudy, cool.

Greetings Count: Not too many folk about today. The man with camera on the top had nothing to say, which is fair enough. The website visitors on the way down - they own the silver coloured MX-5 (above).

No comments allowed on this report as it is too dull to warrant any!
