No 1. The Eastern moor taken from the west on top of Summit tunnel. Over the hill is Blackstone Edge, from Littleborough to Sowerby Bridge.
No 2. Making my way back down.
No 3. Cricket field through the chimneys.
No 4. Gordon Rigg garden and tat centre.
N0.5 St Peters Church school, now converted in to five luxury appartments which were lucky to get shown around by a resident. £250K each. My day paid £200 for our house across to way in 1939.
No 6. Church spire from behind the school.
No 7. Silly shot from graveyard, school chimneys.
No 8. Chimneys of old vicarage, now a very posh private residence.
No 9. View from old school playground.. There wasn't even a fence when I went there. We would loose a ball in the canal and stand by the side throwing stones to get it back, and not a child was harmed.
No 10. Coming down from the moor we passed Bobby Ball's old place. It used to be a run down farmhouse.

Some nice shots of your trip down memory lane, Gremlin. I particularly like number four
