Potholes-Forest of Bowland Lancashire
Welcome to my video. This video hopefully highlights the disgraceful condition of the roads in one of Lancashire's finest areas, The Trough of Bowland. I suspect that the whole area from Galgate near Lancaster to Edisford Bridge in Clitheroe hasn't seen any major civil engineering on the road network for a decade or more. There's even a road that was closed in December 2015 due to a landslip that's STILL closed almost 7 months on!! Is this the way to treat an area owned by the Queen??? Comments are welcome.

The Trough Of Bowland ,Lancashire
Sunday was a glorious day so off to the Trough Of Bowland, an area of exceptional beauty. Not far from the city of Manchester it's wonderful . The Inn you see serves food which is top class .The cheeses local and made from the herd kept by the chese makers .As for the kippers , also locally smoked .Then to the stepping stones .I had to rise to the challenge and reckoned a ducking would be worth it ...Having managed it was a must to return for high tea.The scones were straight from the oven ,Home made jam and local cream .It doesn't get much better .

History, Culture & Heritage
Cromwell's Bridge
The Forest of Bowland is a landscape rich in heritage, designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, much of this beauty is related to the wild nature of the landscape - itself a result of hundreds, if not thousands of years of human activity.
Many of the features present in Bowland today were established in the post medieval period. Across Bowland there are many fine examples of the stone buildings that were built to replace timber houses between the 16th and 18th centuries, with their characteristic stone mullions, lintels and datestones. There are also sites that survive as isolated reminders of the medieval heritage of the Forest of Bowland, for example the Cistercian monastery at Sawley.
image copyright Graham CooperIt was the medieval period that perhaps had the greatest impact on the Bowland landscape. During this time the Royal hunting forests were established - the title ‘forest’ refers to hunting rights, and not to a large expanse of woodland, as we interpret it today. The King used his rights to prevent landowners from clearing and cultivating the land, restricting development and prohibiting change. This controlling influence continued after the Forest laws were revoked in 1507, as deer parks and smaller estates replaced the hunting forests.
There were five main forests - the Royal Forest of Bowland and four others belonging to the earldom of Lancaster at Bleasdale, Quernmore, Wyresdale and Pendle. Hunting in these areas was traditionally for deer and wild boar, together with rabbits, foxes, hares, pheasants and partridges.
Managing the land for game hunting, primarily grouse shooting, has remained a predominant influence on the landscape, and several large private landowners remain today, such as the Duchy of Lancaster, the Duke of Westminster, and Lord Clitheroe. However the current largest single landowner is United Utilities - which manages a large area of the fells primarily for water catchment.
Bronze Age settlers cleared trees from the fells and began cultivating the land. They left little material evidence of their presence, but the fells have remained largely clear of trees ever since.
Other pre historic remains in the area include a cairn on Parlick Pike and Bleasdale Circle.
The Romans left behind two key routeways through Bowland, the north-south Ribchester to Carlisle road, and a lesser east-west route which is evident north of Downham.
The Norse settlers left their impact in our language as well as the landscape - for example, ‘Pen’ in Pendle means hill; ‘Tolfin’ was a norseman who founded what is now called Dolphinholme (‘holme’ is an area of flat land). Contrary to popular misconceptions, the origins of the name Bowland have nothing to do with archery (“the land of the bow”) or with medieval vaccaries (Old Norse, bu-, cow). According to Ekwall (1922), the name derives from the Old English boga-, Old Norse bogi-, meaning a “bow or bend in a river”, and was likely coined in the tenth-century to describe the topography of the Hodder basin, with its characteristic meandering river and streams. The Domesday Bogeuurde is an instance of this usage – a placename thought to designate Barge Ford (formerly known as Boward/Bowerd), a ford that sits on the wide, pronounced bend of the Hodder at its confluence with Foulscales Brook, due southwest of Newton.
Local History & Heritage - Notable Heritage Features
Medieval vaccaries (a type of cattle farm) at Sabden and Marshaw, the motte and bailey castles in the Lune valley, and the monastery at Sawley.
Grand halls, parks and houses at Browsholme, Leagram and Quernmore
Sixteenth to eighteenth century stone buildings with their distinctive stone mullions, lintels and datestones can be seen in many villages and a fine example is at Stephen Park in Gisburn Forest
Dry stone walls and outbarns - the irregular field patterns are oldest (pre 1600AD), while the more regular patterns date from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries
Disused quarries and lead mines
Lime kilns (used to make mortar as well as lime to fertilise the fields)
Nineteenth century cotton and paper mills at Oakenclough and Caton

Beautiful Drives: High Bentham to Slaidburn, Trough of Bowland
Before the Lake district and Yorkshire Dales is an often overlooked gem, the Trough of Bowland in Lancashire.
Feel on top of the world with space to breath. The journey starts on the edge of North Yorkshire, High Bentham (there is also a Low Bentham nearby), to Slaidburn along Lythe Road is a beautiful drive. There are few peoople who live up here, it's mainly sheep, pheasant and the occasional rare sighting of deer.
Drive with care as the roads are often twisty, single track with limited passing places and undulations and sheep are free to roam on large stretches of this route - and why shouldn't they be, they live here. And remember those passing places as you pass them looking out for oncoming traffic. If you meet an on coming car or van you might need them.
If you want to escape the hurly-burly of city life or work pressures this is a great place to come during the late spring to early autumn months. The views can be spectacular.
It's not a route I'd try in winter or in the dark.

A trip to Lancaster and the university
going north visit lancaster on the way.
its a great small city steeped in history.
Lancaster was once known as the ‘hanging town’ and later earned a reputation for ‘lunatics and linoleum’. All that has changed. The ‘lunatic asylum’ of Moor Hospital, where Alan Bennett’s mother was treated, is now luxury flats. The lino industry is no more. It’s still a great place to ‘hang’ but not literally, thankfully. Now the city of just 46,000 has a more tourist-friendly strapline: ‘Small city big story.’
Lancaster Castle
Dating back 1,000 years, this hilltop grade I-listed fortress was a prison for centuries. Outside London, more people were hanged here than anywhere else in England, earning Lancaster the sobriquet of ‘the hanging town’. You no longer need to be a criminal to visit. Since 2013, it’s been open to tourists. The Georgian courtrooms are impressive. lancastercastle.com
Coffee quarter
J.Atkinson & Co coffee roasters, established in 1837, claims to be the city’s oldest business. New owners are injecting the city with a caffeine buzz. Their two cafes, The Hall and The Music Room are especially popular. Upcycled, vintage and ‘hipster’ - but without silly beards. The Hall won ‘best flat white in the UK’ in 2013. thecoffeehopper.com
Cycleways
There are some 50 miles of traffic-free cycleways in and around Lancaster. Lancaster to Morecambe promenade is just three miles or follow the River Lune on a tarmac, car-free cycle path from Glasson Dock to the Forest of Bowland AONB and the Crook O' Lune, a bend in the river, painted by JMW Turner. celebratingcycling.org
Ashton Memorial, Williamson Park
This Edwardian Baroque memorial, like a mini St Paul’s high on a hill, dominates Lancaster’s skyline. 150ft tall, the ‘jelly mould’ was commissioned by Lancaster’s ‘Lino King’, Lord Ashton. Legend has it that he commissioned the memorial to honour his late wife but before it was completed he’d remarried. Awkward. There are fine views to the coast. lancaster.gov.uk
Maritime Museum
Lancaster was once among the five busiest ports in Britain. Tall ships carrying sugar, spices, tea and coffee sailed up the River Lune into the city. The colonnaded customs house, a fine Georgian building, is now a maritime museum that also tells of the slave trade. lancashire.gov.uk
Judge’s Lodgings
Originally home to a keeper of Lancaster Castle who was a notorious witch hunter, this grand house is the oldest in Lancaster, with parts dating to 1550. Between 1776 and 1975 judges visiting the court at nearby Lancaster Castle lodged here. Now it’s a museum with a renowned collection of Gillow furniture. lancashire.gov.uk
