At the summit of that road, I parked in a small pull in a few yards past the locked gate at the start of the track at SD914337. It was a lovely day with sunshine and blue skies. The only disadvantage was the extra weight in the rucksack of the fleece, coat and hat, which turned out to be carried all day and totally unused, rather in contradiction to my recent claim of using everything I pack!

       

A long walk up the gently ascended track was followed by a short descent to a turning area, which marks the end of the track. A bunch of lambs that were running away from me then showed me the faint path leaving the turning circle, down to a slightly damp clough and then the easy final ascent to the summit of Boulsworth Hill-Lad Law G/SP-008. It had been a splendid walk which I thoroughly enjoyed.

       

On the summit, it was necessary to explain my activity to a cyclist who had followed me from the turning circle, and was continuing over to the reservoir tracks, a young couple out for a walk, and a Scottish chap who sat by the trig point playing songs on his penny whistle! He would not be the last fellow musician I would encounter on summits today!  12m yielded 21 QSOs - 11 on SSB, 9 on CW and one on PSK31. I forgot to leave my logbook handy when packing away, so didn't make a call on 2m prior to descent. Apologies if anyone was waiting for that.  The return walk to the car was just as enjoyable, and it was time to move to the other side of Colne for an afternoon jaunt up Pendle Hill G/SP-005.
