What could be better than a load of snow on Xmas day?
A winning lottery ticket I suppose, but that aside, it was pretty well perfect this Xmas.
This is taken from the "Back Meadow", just behind the house my folks live in and I was brought up in.
The hill behind the tree is Pandle - this is the lower 1/2 of it where a road goes over the "Nick".
You can see to the very right most side a little building - that's he Wellsprings. Used to be a pub, but now a restaurant and ski centre.
The other thing it's famous for are the witches - every year on Halloween thousands go up the Nick to celebrate the old Pendle Witches from the Nutter and Devizes families.
Fab winter scenery Ade and a very informative write up. What's that funny white stuff? We get so little of it here. Still we are nearer to the Equator. Den
I used to go sledging there when I was a wee nipper - there and winter hill lol
Great photo Ade, Driving back to my parents it was pretty thick over Blubberhouses (as per the norm) and a little snow on the road which caused some fun and games :-)
More due apparantly - so I "need" a 20D and a 4 wheel drive !
