Wycoller


We're nearing the end of October now and a glorious morning meant only one thing: picnic lunch at Wycoller, just over the border into Lancashire.

Tine on the old packhorse bridge (experts undecided if it dates from the 13th or 15th century, Tine definitely from the 20th)
The old village from the packhorse bridge. Fewer than 100 people live here now.
Wycoller Hall from the late 16th century, now in ruins


The 'Clam Bridge'...
...made from one block of gritstone, nearly 12 feet (4m) long.
It's hard to believe this area was a part of the industrial revolution
Picnic lunch = hungry ducks...

...with a beautiful pond to swim in.

Taking off or landing, I can't remember!

Landing or "ponding" ?
