A ''Happy bench Monday'' to all, from > Dj.

A bench with a fine view south - over the 'Ladybower dam' the more normal waterline can be judged from the right bank,.. the peak to the right is the regularly and easily climbed 'Win hill' at 464 metres ,.. 'Ashopton viaduct' seen in the distance is so named after the other village of ''Ashopton'' demolished in early 1940 and flooded in order to construct the dam.
