Hartshead Pike

Hartshead Pike
A glimpse of our local Oldham area monument here, called Hartshead Pike, from my old Panoramio collection.
Standing at 940ft (286m) ASL it is one of our highest landmarks in this area and technically sits in the borough of Tameside. Long ago, I remember going in here as it was a small refreshment shop, now long closed and sealed up. I can still just about still see this from our house window.

Hi Jaap. Sorry I had to re-post my last photo to insert this in the right slot. (Now I realise that I could have done that differently with date switching:) ) - so copied your comment to that.

Anyway -great that you enjoyed this old photo.

So glad you liked my local pike. I don't get up there so much nowadays. It always feels so cold.

Cheers, Herb

A fabulous shot Herb. The colours and silhouette against that gorgeous sky look amazing! A refreshment shop sounds great! What a shame it's not there now. I hope you have a good new week. Rosa.

Hi again Rosa. Yes it was a long time ago now (perhaps as much as 55yrs). There are still a lot of people make the effort to climb the hill from the nearest road only a few hundred yards at the back. Foe some years recently it was flood lit at nights but vandals soon put paid to that (as usual up here).

Enjoy your week, Herb
