Darwen Tower



A few photos taken on my mobile phone from a early Spring walk to Darwen Tower


Great Hill from the path to Darwen Tower


First sight of the Tower


The expanse of the Darwen Moors


The Tower is getting closer


The "Metropolis" of Darwen !!


Approaching the Tower with it's new dome visible on the top.


The old dome was blown off in a winter storm in 2010


The Trig point on top of the Moor, right alonside the tower.


The view from behind the trig point.


The stone spiral staircase to the top of the tower


A view from the top, It looks like snow on the ground but there wasn't a single flake.


The view in the opposite direction

The path down
