I stand to be corrected here but I have always thought that Hacking Boat and Dinckley Ferry were two different places, Hacking Boat being at the confluence of the Ribble and Calder at Calderfoot and Dinckley Ferry being where the Dinckley footbridge now spans the river Ribble below Hurst Green. As I say, I stand to be corrected on this. Yours Taddy
