Barley Picnic Area
A distinct chill in the air for this one and a stiff breeze on top. Starting from Barley at 17:10hrs, the walk headed firstly for Barley Hill.
New View?
The walk up Barley Hill leads to the most direct ascent of Pendle from Barley. Looking over my shoulder I took this pic of the new roof of the old waterworks building. Almost looks like a river, dunnit?
