I walked up amd down Cat Steps every day to get to Fearns. My dad worked at Lower Mill and installed the clock in the tower you can still see in Rawtenstall, just about all that is left of the mill , now Asdas.
New subscriber here. Stunning scenery and great video. You also mentioned AC/DC and Motörhead (2 of my favourite bands!) God bless Pip. Seán, Cork, Ireland.
Hi Dave. CloughFoot Colliery was owned by the Deardens, the water treatment plant you talk about is from Cloughfoot Colliery. Todmorden Moor Colliery is the only local colliery to Rossendale, except Burnt Hills to be mentioned in Lord Ashleys report of child labour in mines 1841. At that time I think it was on the opposit sode of Tod/Bacup rd to the observatory. They then moved across the road to where the brickworks were, now observatory, you cam still see the walled up arched drift entrance on the access road. The coal seam dipped away from the surface very steeply so to obtain maximum free drainage they drove long tunnels through baron rock to intersect the seam at a lower level and thats why Clough Foot was driven. I do have lots of info on those pits, I havent typed it up yet.
