Forest of Bowland, Lancashire

Lancashire is usually associated with large cities and former mill towns and much less with attractive countryside, but within its borders lie many lovely places including the Forest of Bowland, now designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This shot was taken recently from a viewpoint on Longridge Fell known as Jeffrey Hill. Close by the small car park, on the right kind of day, spectacular views are possible of the distant Fylde coast, as well as this one looking over the Vale of Chipping towards the Bowland Fells. The cone-shaped hill to the left is Parlick Hill with the broader shape of Fair Snape Fell stretching to the right.
