T:UK - Knarr Hill https://share.google/9dbUFU7Ijzv0SikiB

Boulsworth Hill is the highest point in the South Pennines and the only summit in the area that rises above 500m above sea level. It is also one of only two Marilyns in the South Pennines.

Don't forget that it's always windy on top.

A stone bench near the pinnacle has a link to a beautiful dedication to a son who died aged only 20.

Wainman's Pinnacle, is a stone obelisk that was built as a folly in 1898 as a memorial to the Napoleonic Wars.

Lund's Tower stands on top of Earl's Crag near Sutton in Craven, it is a turreted stone tower which was built as a folly in 1887.

I grew up running around here, the front side with the steps is great for training.

Knarrs Hill rises to 1,096 feet (334 m) and affords lovely views of the surrounding countryside. To the west, beyond Colne, Pendle Hill is seen beautifully, while Burnley sprawls to the southwest. The summit forms part of the Pendle Way, a 45-mile (72 km) loop of the region.

Pendle Hill looms over East Lancashire between the towns of Clitheroe and Nelson.  With its distinctive humpback shape, visible for miles around from all directions, it is a local landmark, rising from an area of green beauty.  The district is dotted with tiny hamlets and farms, divided by ancient drystone walls and full of folklore and stories – not least the famous tale of the Pendle Witches.  Geographically, Pendle Hill is part of the Pennine Chain of hills that run north-south through the northern half of England.  It is included in the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, though Pendle is a discrete hill, separated from the main upland area of Bowland by the Ribble Valley.

An outlier from the hills of the main Forest of Bowland area makes Pendle Hill a superb stand along peak. At 532m it's high enough to feel big and offer excellent views north into the hills and in other directions over the more populated areas of Lancashire. Pendle is intertwined with myth and legend from jumping giants to the famous witch trials in the early 17th century. Much loved locally it's a great run from any direction with most routes providing a tough but manageable climb and a brilliant descent.

Lad Law at 518m is the trig pointed summit of Boulsworth Hill. It's the highest point in the South Pennines. On a clear day you can see into the Lake District, across the Forest of Bowland and over the south Pennines. The rock here is millstone grit like much of the Peak District. It outcrops in several places forming steep edges.

An outlier of the fells of the main Forest of Bowland AONB, Pendle Hill is a superb standalone peak. At 1,827 feet (532 m), it's high enough to feel big and offers excellent views north into the Forest of Bowland and in other directions over the more populated areas of Lancashire. Pendle is intertwined with myth and legend from jumping giants to the famous Witch Trials of the early 17th century.

The path up is difficult, makes the journey down all the more enjoyable though

An interesting folly, in an extremely picturesque spot!

A tight squeeze to get up the stone spiral staircase but the views from the top are well worth the climb up

If you look to the North East - that's where I live at the moment, soon that will be South West. Yes our lost sisters who were murdered for their land not their faith choice, the excuse used to murder them! There are many ways to get up the hill, Great Harwood is the back slope and Sabden - be sure to see the Treacle and Jam Buttie Mines. Dress for the wind and rain, as the saying goes "If there's cloud a ont' t'hill it's gonna rain and if there's not just wait a moment and there soon will be".

Boulsworth Trig Point

Step steps gives access to a view point within the tower

We always walk from Sabden side just up from The Wellsprings pub. Nice steady climb that flattens out for a while and a nice steady decent back the way you came.
