Can anyone tell me where/what this is please?

Coming back on the bus from Blackburn today and noticed what look like lots of archways/caves next to the canal, just before you go under the bridge. I just wondered if anyone knew what they are, as I have no idea. Thanks.

Hello Pixie, I believe that Busman took this set of photos on Staggeringmans Easter Walk around Church.....

Thanks people. I really am going to have to get out and see more of this pleasanter (is that a word?) of Accrington. I haven't even been up to the top of the Coppice yet and I have lived here for 6 years! I mean the Coppice should be a piece of cake compared to the Tower walk.

back from where. what route.. stupid question as it stands

And if the karma snaffler had used their brain properly they would have realised that I already said that I was returning from Blackburn, and as far as I am aware theres only one route that goes past the canal and the fairy caves. So I say stupid reply "as it stands" to you!

Gobsmacked · 17-04-2005, 20:53

Karma snaffler obviously has trouble reading plain English.

And we've answered haven't we? Or am I missing something?

They were also full of rubbish including empty beer cans etc last time we were round there.

Ah the delights of the chav.

Is someone getting upset that I didn't ask them first?

garinda · 20-04-2005, 08:41

Leave Chav, come and live in the 'fairy caves' with me, we'll do each others roots and send Chav bad karma!

Oh I couldn't do that. He looks so attractive asleep right now. Head back, snoring like a pig. I do declare, I must be the luckiest gal in the whole world sometimes.
