That was Leemings Pad your refering too, and the ruins were Field House Farm, Leemings pad was about 300 yards further up Sandy Lane than Broad Oak Fold.

The other farm I am talking about was in front of the Warmden Dam and always had loud noise of a generator running all day and loads of vehicles parked up year on year, do you know what I mean? It was before Heights Farm which was along way behind it to the left as you come up through Broad Oak.
That is Clough Bottom Farm, Dick Guy's place, had a few run ins with him for blocking hydrants with his dammed machinery, thats the place I referred to earlier at the end of Cat Hall Lane.
I've got Meadow Top Farm on my map which was other side of Warmden from Heights Farm also Wooley Lane Farm further over towards Baxenden and then Hen Heads Farm more closer to Mitchell House Res.

I've seen vehicles go up passed New House Farm loads of times.

Other than a 4x4, you can only access that part of Sandy Lane from the bypass. I've tried and its impassable to ordinary vehicles.
