Although it was a fairly bright afternoon it was a bit nippy and there was some frost on the ground. We didn't have far to walk. It was a fairly steep climb up the little track but the tower is only some 335 metres above sea level. After the walk we drove to Ramsbottom to get a look at the East Lancashire Railway. The line was reopened in 1991. We were in luck - A stream train was at the station.
The train was too big to photograph. Either that or I was just too close to it. :-)

I really like unusual buildings - my ideal home would be a lighthouse!
Yes, I would love to live in a lighthouse. I'm sure I could put a decent satellite dish on the top of one of them. :-)
You want to hear something cool? In Canada, the City of Toronto has a suburb called Mississauga (pr. Missusawguh). It's the heart of Peel Region. I have never known why it was called Peel Region but I think now I have my answer.
Way cool :) Thanks again Kat. I always learn great stuff from you.
that's a really cool building. i love to visit old places. that charm and ambiance that surrounds them really takes you in.
Wow. I love that tower. Great history as well. Don't see that sort of thin around these parts.
cool tower! It looks like there's a little tiny Nun standing next to it
