It took place in the 1800's when canals were bustling with trade.I checked out the ski slopes link,and the tubing downhill looks like fun.You are fantastic,walking all those klms per day.Very inspiring and enjoyable read,thank you,regards, D.Destemonanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-71106240440836694862015-04-19T17:20:30.408+01:002015-04-19T17:20:30.408+01:00Enjoying reading about your walk Ilona, we were in...Enjoying reading about your walk Ilona, we were in Hebden Bridge last week !!<br />Twiggy Twiggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065849697979313992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-63248975288905147572015-04-18T20:41:18.758+01:002015-04-18T20:41:18.758+01:00loving reading your walk account.

If you're going to Accrington, be sure to visit the Howarth Museum art gallery. They have some fabulous pieces of glass ware...like Galle and Lalique. Have a great day walking.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03309337621996008616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-77256678130982313472015-04-18T07:02:26.537+01:002015-04-18T07:02:26.537+01:00I love the sculpures made from tree stumps.

It would be nice if you could book your rooms in advance but I know that would be hard when you aren't sure how far you'll walk depending on the weather.<br /><br />That ski slope looks interesting. Even after looking at their website I can't quite figure out if it snows there, if they use machine-made snow or if there is just a slick covering they use over that padding and do without snow all together. The skis in the shop look like regular skis. Interesting.<br /><br />Have a good walk tomorrow.Barbara M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06438114347870523265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-52703918116099607572015-04-17T23:58:14.266+01:002015-04-17T23:58:14.266+01:00Good going Ilona!
