Yes and although the weather isn't great (it can surely rain and rain) the Ribble Valley is beautiful. And apparently has one of the lowest densities of traffic lights in the country. By the by, at the risk of boring non locals, if you've never been, next time you are in Downham, pop in the church, turn round, look out of the church porch towards Pendle. A particularly wondrous view - apologies if you already know this.
Is this the view you mean? I took this a couple of years ago when me and Mrs Rh went for a drive up the Ribble Valley to Downham, as well as a few other places nearby, such as Roughlee, Barley, Whalley and Sabden.
It is a wonderful part of the world, like a time warp back to the 1950s (or what I imagine that would be like). There is a small shop in a cottage about 200 yards down the road from there that sells very nice ice cream, it also sells bantams' eggs so we buy a box or 2 whenever we visit.
