Police had a busy weekend around a popular beauty spot despite warnings to stay away from the area during the Easter weekend. Chorley police say they had to break up a group of up to 70 people who were acting anti-socially, as well as reunite two missing children with their families, and put out a number of dangerous BBQs on moorland around Rivington. This comes after warnings were issued by Bolton Council and other authorities to not gather around Rivington Pike this Easter weekend due to coronavirus lockdown restrictions. The rule of six is still in place and the council urged people not to take part in the annual hike to Rivington Pike that usually takes place every Good Friday.

Tea on the Lawn at Rivington Terraced Gardens a century ago A VERY British century-old tradition is set to be revived this year as people are invited to take tea on the lawn. Rivington Heritage Trust is bringing back afternoon tea at Rivington Terraced Gardens, an event Lord and Lady Leverhulme would stage annually for their friends. Lord Leverhulme would invite his private guests to enjoy the grand views and take tea by the summerhouse. During the summers of 1919-1924, Lord Lever would hold annual open days. On these occasions, members of the public could purchase a ticket to enjoy live music and entertainment, with proceeds being donated to local charities.
