Default Fountain Basin

This construction, dating from the 1840s, was originally used to gauge the flow of the River Etherow in Longdendale. Now it is more for show.

John, that's just my type of shot- I'm jealous!

Pete,

Head up the M60 East from Wilmslow, take the A628 (Woodhead) towards Barnsley, stop in Tintwistle, walk down from the village and you're there.
