Great views from here, take them in 👀

this place really does have it all! be it hiking around the reservoirs up to the pike, gravel riding on the trails and the roads around the area are great. There are plenty of café there too. Also go wild or ape tree top and ariel slides if that's what your in too.

Great walk out here.

The stone reads: To Preston, To Wigan, To Bolton, To Blackburn. On each side

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.

lovely ride

This reservoir is named after the River Yarrow and is set within the stunning landscapes of the Yarrow Valley, a peaceful rural area with superb views all around.

This is a bridleway, narrow in places, pass with care

Great park with little gardens and duck pond plus cafe

I'm just wondering why someone feels the need to copy and paste my words. Don't you have anything to say yourself about this area?

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

Road leading to the junction is downhill so be ready to break as it comes onto a fast road

Slightly bumpy and hard packed surface. Easy incline

Cracking place to stop and enjoy the views of the lake

Average gradient of 4.4%, resulting in a difficulty score of 138. The top of the ascent is located at 325 meters above sea level. It's great

The engineer for the Rivington reservoirs was Thomas Hawksley and construction for the Liverpool Corporation Waterworks took place between 1852 and 1857. The Lower Rivington reservoir has two dams - the Millstone Embankment, which is 2,120 feet (646 m) long and 40-foot (12.2 m) high, and the Horwich Embankment, which is 1,660 feet (506 m) long and 61-foot (18.6 m) high. Filter beds were constructed at the foot of the Horwich Embankment, The original sand filters were replaced by a new treatment plant from where a pipeline runs to the service reservoirs at Eccleston, St Helens. The River Douglas was diverted through a paved channel in a deep cutting into Lower Rivington.
