Bollards!
Delightful sandstone bollards all in a row, but where? That's almost a Haiku.

Re: Bollards!
It looks like the bollards had a railing through them to "fence off" the area or keep horses out?.

It also looks a bit like some old cemetary, but no longer used. Knowing your past efforts I think it might be somewhere up Plantation Street way or off Manchester Road?

Apart from these wild guesses...I haven't a clue!

Re: Bollards!
The only parts of the borough that I haven't featured yet are Rishton and Great Harwood, they come later. So that should make it a bit easier for you. I can also tell you that it isn't in Accringon either. Darby maybe on the right track with one of his suggestions.

Re: Bollards!
Is it round the back of the ambulance station/ Caligen foam. I seem to remember a path running round the back of the college playing fields, from when I was younger
