1. Turn the fan on will you.
2. I dont know where the water comes from, but the level never seems to change.
3. This is the rock that helped build the town and pave the streets.
4. Stone from times past and windmills of tomorrow.
5. There are 6 in these fields, thats half the number that cover Oswaldtwistle Moor.
6. The old firing range, these are the mechanisms that were used to hoist the targets into the air.
7. Looking in the direction of "Accy".
8. The farmhouse in the first picture, this time under heavy clouds.
9. And finally Accrington bathing in the last rays of the sun.
Numbers 2 and 3 do it for me. I prefer to see landscapes without the windmills, but can appreciate the need for 'green' power. The use of windmills is controversial here too.
