Wow thats a long link Tinks :)

Re: Name the stream
 

Just read that and I was not convinced that it was the same bit of running water.

Re: Name the stream
 

lol! I know it's to view it in HTML code or something :confused:

Re: Name the stream
 

Well i've never followed it myself but led to believe that it goes from Springhill down by the lodges (now gone) through Tanpits and as Tealeaf mentioned further up the post it comes out at the bridge on Dill Hall lane where it joins the river Hyndburn.

Re: Name the stream
 

Just found ANOTHER LINK that mentions it, interesting read as well

Re: Name the stream
 

WOW! That is an interesting link there K.S.H. All that over a game of dice eh!

Re: Name the stream
 

That link won't open for me. :(

Re: Name the stream
 

After studying all the evidence it's my impression that any running water from Moscow Mill Street is Antley Syke but from Jacobs lodge to the bottom of coal pit lane it is something else.

Re: Name the stream
 

Sorry, le fey. Bagpuss is right. Antley Syke runs out towards what was Hyndburn House. What Bagpuss identifies as Springhill Clough appears to be correct.

My source of information is the Mario site which clearly shows both systems….. :)

Re: Name the stream
 

I've just been following it's route on that Mario map website. It shows it clearly but no name.

I'll go and have a look at the maps tomorrow were Ian's dad saw it, if I can find them.

Re: Name the stream
 

Out of interest Tinkerbelle what did you think it was called?

Re: Name the stream
 

What do you mean Bagpuss? Before his dad said it was called Antley Syke I just thought it was part of Tinker Brook.


Right, the maps are on the walls in the Oswaldtwistle section at Ossy Mills.

Re: Name the stream
 

Sorry just read the early posts again and you did say Tinker Brook.

Re: Name the stream
 

Ok. I can’t be sure but I think we’re still right. Springhill Clough runs out for Jacobs lodge and runs all in a straight line following Orchard Drive, Star Street crossing the corner of Tanpits on to the Hyndburn.

Now Antley Syke I believe ran a course through Lower Antley as it was and now takes a line under Lonsdale Street and India Street and on to the Hyndburn.

This of course maybe just supposition on my part but if anyone is going up to the library anytime soon I would be interested to find out if this is correct?
