⏖ Chorley
Enjambant la rivière Yarrow dans le Lancashire, cet ouvrage d'art du XVIIe siècle a été érigé lors du déplacement de la route historique vers Bolton. Son voisinage abrite aujourd'hui l'un des plus anciens pubs de Chorley, jadis rebaptisé du nom des seigneurs locaux et tristement lié à la fronde des constables lors de la bataille de Duxbury Hall en 1813. Témoin d'un passé surprenant, un simple cottage niché sous ses arches est l'ultime vestige d'une station thermale locale qui attira, lors d'un été caniculaire de 1850, plus de 10 000 visiteurs en une seule journée.
⏖ Chorley
Chorley is famous for being the home of the delicious Chorley cake. In the 1970s, the town's skyline was heavily dominated by factory chimneys from its booming cotton industry, though most of these have since been demolished, leaving behind historic mill buildings and traditional terraced streets for mill workers.
