Drove down Sandy Lane and as the house looked unoccupied, I parked up in front and took a snap. Looks like good old 263 has had a lick of pain in the last year. Nothing can be 100% uninteresting, so I can never give a score of "0", but this place really pushed me hard on that policy.

Not a glamorous one, but a month on from returning from this year's hike and the need to get back in action was growing. Parked in Hindley Tesco Extra and took a longish walk around the parish on a sunny afternoon. Finally passed the target - the white bungalow. People in the garden, but being in work uniform bottled any approach to question. Of minor interest destroyed 1949. That is a long time ago. Estimated height about 63m?

GPS says 20m from road, implying back garden as mapped location. OS say Dest 04/49

Gone. House for sale - checked the estate agent's web blurb in hope of finding mention of an unusual garden feature, but nothing.
