Mundane pictures of the North

I walked up here today. Stoodley Pike. I came up once before about 40 years ago but walked from Todmorden. This time we walked up from Hebden Bridge and it felt like a longer walk. I said to someone that going up from Todmorden felt easier in my memory but they pointed out that walking anywhere would have been easier 40 years ago

Nice life in the meantime though, unlike battery hens and lots of pigs

You were in Bev and I didn't know about it?! I live 5 mins walk from there. If you come again let me know! x

They were very friendly and curious to meet us. Even the bull seemed unconcerned, though keeping his distance.

I will do. I was volunteer managing the YHA for the week and I may well do a week again. I thought you'd moved further away.

Never made it up there when I lived in Tod and the surrounds. How long a walk is it from HB centre? Which way do you go?

We walked from the Co-op in Hebden. From there over the canal bridge then right up to Horsehold and then just followed for signs. The first signs were for the Mary Towneley Bridal Way and then the Pennine Bridal way. It was about three miles altogether. We walked back a slightly longer way but just over six miles in total round trip. I think Todmorden is a fair bit shorter though.

Calling Fred Dibnah.......quite sad watching this knowing he's gone. He was quite a character and dug a mine in his back garden !

The 'HMV is back' poster is a nice touch, really accentuates the mediocrity of it all.
