Re: Hacking boat
During the war I used to travel from Accrington to Whalley with my Grandmother. We used to walk across the fields to the Ferry sometimes we would stop at a farmhouse that served salmon meals. Does anybody remember this ?

Re: Hacking boat
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
