Where to visit in accrington
 
When I think of Accrington I picture a shopping town and rows of houses on the outskirts.

I know there is going to be more (well i hope, at the risk of looking foolish)

Im a photographer, and looking for finding new places to take some snaps, I think I have photographed just about as much as I can in Rossendale lol! :cool:

I like water/waterfalls mainly but have a bit of a thing for old railways or old historical sights, also hills, and the views they provide :D

So go on then accy'ers.... wow me with places you like, and would like to share (of course theres always places you dont want to share with anyone :rolleyes:)

I had some friends and family come down recentley and when I took them into the town centre they all replied is this it and likened it so some smaller towns on the outskirts of glasgow which wasnt a bad thing but they did ask why so many takeaway shop and discount shops ?....couldnt really answer that one..

Have a scout round the gallery, there should be some pics there to stir up the creative juices.

Should be lots in there from the Coppice…there is a night shot of the town from up there in this thread by Mr D. I think it’s a cracker.

Those pics you posted the other week SamF, they were good uns too ;)
