Today in Pictures, Underneath the arches.

1. Martholme Lane, with a view over to Pendle Hill.
2. Once the tree gave out oxygen, now it feeds the fungi.
3. The bench installed in memory of Adrian Shurmer.
4. LISTEN........carefully......you can just hear the sound of a steam train from long ago.
5. And that's what they travelled on, sleepers, with rails as well, or it would have been very bumpy.
6. Then, once upon a time people travelled over that as well.
7. The River Calder as it leaves the viaduct behind.
8. I feel like Flanagan and Allen...........underneath the arches.
9. Martholme Viaduct, construction started in 1870 and finished in 1877, it has 10 arches that span the River Calder each span is 40 feet wide and the viaduct itself is 65 feet high, it is now a grade 2 listed building.
10. Now the walk back up the lane to the car, and a last look across to Pendle.
