Delightful sandstone bollards all in a row, but where? That's almost a Haiku.

One of the parks perhaps?

Errrm, I'm not sure you would want to have a picnic here.

It looks like the bollards had a railing through them to "fence off" the area or keep horses out?.

It also looks a bit like some old cemetary, but no longer used. Knowing your past efforts I think it might be somewhere up Plantation Street way or off Manchester Road?

Apart from these wild guesses...I haven't a clue!

Re: Bollards!
 
The only parts of the borough that I haven't featured yet are Rishton and Great Harwood, they come later. So that should make it a bit easier for you. I can also tell you that it isn't in Accringon either. Darby maybe on the right track with one of his suggestions.

Is it round the back of the ambulance station/ Caligen foam. I seem to remember a path running round the back of the college playing fields, from when I was younger

Lets see if we can get in the right area so we can narrow it down, i'll go for rising bridge/haslingden, is it across the road from Winfields?

I'm sorry, but you are going to have to cast your net a lot wider for this isolated little gem. And yet it was part of what was, for a long time, the only one of it's kind in the area. I'll chuck in a name or two to see if that will help you. Adela and Henry de Petre.
