“Difficult weather conditions over winter and restrictions due to Covid-19 made delivery of these projects challenging, but it is credit to all the partnership organisations involved that the projects have been successfully completed on time.”

Simon Hirst from River Holme Connections, said: “This work will benefit people and businesses by helping to reduce the severity of flooding downstream and help wildlife too by linking up woodlands and creating buffer strips along rivers.”

Simon’s Seat from Bolton Abbey
Bolton Abbey is another very popular spot which you can usually expect to be busy, but the estate has had a really good pre-booking system in place since the easing of the first lockdown that ensures that there is plenty of space and facilities for everyone (but do remember to book ahead!).
That said, the main areas around the abbey and the Cavendish Pavilion remain very popular so, to ensure plenty of space, we recommend the longer walk up to Simon’s Seat at the summit of Barden Fell. This route takes you quickly away from the hot spots, up the atmospheric ‘Valley of Desolation’ and across the moors, for fantastic views of the surrounding area.
