I think the hill is called Knowle Hill.
Could that chimney be bent with age? I know people call it the banana chimney.

Who's the chap with the wide gage Zimmer frame...........
Are those gates to Whittaker Park? What were you doing up there?
That chimney is in a bad state, its only the bands holding it together, looks like the mortar has crumbled on one side, thereby causing it to lean. The cause is no more Lancashire boilers belching smoke up the up the chimney. The chemicals in the soot get rained on & turn to acid, which rots the mortar. Ever put bands on chimneys from a flying scaffold, believe me its hard work.

I recognise the hill but if it isn't called Knowle then I don't know what it is called. I recognise that puff of steam too because it's always puffing and always looks like a steam train.
Ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh...close, but too close. The picture was taken looking north from the canal bank at Church; the hill in question can only be seen on a really crisp, clear day, as was friday morning. The chimney is that of the cement works, just outside Clitheroe.staggeringman said:
As for the hill itself, here's a clue: it's 1 of 3.

The hill in question is Pen-y-ghent. The ordnance survey mapping software on my laptop tells me that it is 694 metres high. I don't know what this translates to in old currency, but as a comparison, Ingleborough is 724m and Whernside is the tallest of the Three peaks at 736m.
GOOD GRIEF!!!!!!!!!!!!
