photo number 2
i was thinking the same thing, Huncoat power st. but I dont remember it being that close to houses. It does look like the back of burnley road though, could it be something to do with the reservoir that used to be at the bottom of the coppice, I believe there are new, overpriced houses on there now!!! sorry don't mean to offend anyone if any members actually live in these houses now!!!!

Re: photo number 2
thoght i was seeing things there, little mo, (or not, should I say!) ;D
Not sure whether the answer's correct or not, just trying to make an educated guess. But if it's right, then the houses might well have been demolished by the time you remember it. (I'm a good deal older than you more's the pity!) ;D ;D Did you live up there then?
