Friday 8 February

Lovely day for walking.

I had a walk over Rivington with Sue & dogs, I had forgotten just how beautiful it is around there.
People come to see the Chinese gardens that William Lever later to become Lord Leverhulme  had built - he also built a Bungalow and the Pigeon Tower. He was born in Bolton and  is life was very interesting.

 Paths like this all over the area.

  1. Rivington Barn bring back happy memories of the Saturday night dances in the early 1960's.

  2. Now that's funny because while we were there we talked about the dances - Sue being from Chorley was saying they use to run coaches and then a taxi home, I did visit the Barn on the odd Saturday night. We both had a look in side and it was like stepping back in time.
