When we lived in Horwich in the early 1950s, our family walk was always up Rivington Pike, through the Chinese gardens and past the Pigeon Tower. My grandad used to tell me that the 18th century shooting lodge on the summit was "Cromwell's watchtower" - completely wrong of course, though the hilltop was used as a place for beacon fires down the ages. |
