The original medieval Liverpool Castle stood in Liverpool near the waterfront, which is about 22 miles southwest of Rivington, but it had been demolished in the 1720s. The currently-existing structure named Liverpool Castle is a scaled replica that was commissioned by Lord Leverhulme. Work started in 1912 and continued until Lord Leverhulme’s death in 1925. Relatively few people had been assigned to the construction of the building, so the structure was not quite finished, although the folly was supposed to look like the ruins of a castle anyway. In the years since Lord Leverhulme’s death, the area Castle, fell into disrepair. Weeds started growing on the castle’s masonry, people vandalized the walls, and a spiral staircase within the castle collapsed in the early 1980s. Liverpool Castle is still slowly crumbling, transforming from a folly meant to imitate the ruins of a castle into actual ruins.

The Horrobin embankment separates the upper and lower Rivington Reservoirs. It carries Horrobin Lane across the reservoir, providing a useful link for a walk. The reservoirs were built to supply water to Liverpool.

Constructed between 1852 and 1857 this is the middle of the three reservoirs in the valley. There are nice footpaths all around the reservoir and further up the valley.

Knowsley Lane crosses over Rivington but it has wonderful views of the water and the other side there are steps that the water runs down. which is interesting to view

Absolutely stunning views and plenty of climbs but well worth it

Some of the climbs around Rivington can be very tough

Personally, I can't get enough of the views around Rivington - it's a must on any ride out this direction!

Top lock amazed me how much it takes the narrow boats to get through. I can imagine it's a very hard thing to do, especially if you have 90 of them to pass

Lower Rivington Reservoir is at the end of the Rivington chain of reservoirs in Lancashire, England, with Upper Rivington Reservoir to the north, and Rivington Water Treatment Works to the south. The Rivington chain primarily supplies 70,000 households in the Wigan area. The chain was built to supply Liverpool.

Such wonderful scenery at Rivington Pike have a ride up some views are stunning
