Pendle Summit
Scroll down for photos and a description of the walk....
Pendle People
Like flies to dung, like boozers to the pub, Pendle People are out in force on this fine day. I'm lost without blue sky and sunshine and this week we are offered one day when the clouds are absent and the isobars are far apart. The start time is 17:50.
Pendle House and Barley Hill
Look carefully and you will see two powered bikes, not what I like to see on Pendle.
Pendle Ascent
I decided to take advantage of the fine weather and walk well ahead of the sunset time.
