My van is my time-machine, it gives me fresh perspectives on our remarkable places, shared here on a weekly basis.📸🚐🏛 **🏛 Missed the last Digest?** [**Here it is**](https://www.digest.andymarshall.co/andy-marshall-s-genius-loci-digest-20-may-2022/)**.** **🚐 View Digest Archive** [**here**](https://www.digest.andymarshall.co/)**.** --- ## Photo-hoard ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/058/111/original/avoncroft-130.jpg) The medieval town house at Avoncroft Museum ## Words “The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.” **Mark Twain** ## Observations ## What lies beneath. *A unique landscape in Lancashire* ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/055/634/original/steve_and_i-1.jpg) **We are on a walk from Chipping in Lancashire taking in a circular route besides the Whitewell gorge.** The landscape is a mix of ancient deer park, woodland-copse, river-ford and agricultural hamlet. It’s hard to believe that the 358.9 million year old Carboniferous holds sway just a few feet beneath my boots. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/055/602/original/img_3286.jpg) Our walk places a sandstone landscape cheek by jowl with a karst of limestone. Chipping sits on sandstone formed in shallow seas of sedimentary layers of silt, whereas the hamlets to the north sit upon limestone created from seas rich in carbonate, corals and shelly fauna. The change is sudden and distinctive: in one moment I’m taking in the long view down to the Hodder and the next I’m deep within a gorge surrounded by knolls dotted with bluebells and the sound of a cuckoo. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/055/646/original/img_3290.jpg) Lime Kiln near Knot Hill The clues are there for all to see: the roofs that protect the older buildings of Chipping are made from sandstone. The yawning expanse across the ancient deer park at Leagram wouldn’t be possible without its stable sandstone base. Whilst the limestone walls that carve up the landscape around Dinkling Green and Fairy Holes are supplemented by lime kilns and sink holes. Chipping has the feel of the Peak District whilst Fairy Holes has a splash of the Yorkshire Dales. This landscape is unique. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/055/655/original/img_3387.jpg) The former deer park at Leagram ## Hotspots ## Chipping, Lancashire *Vernacular delights and two churches* Still laid out on it's C17th plan, Chipping shows signs in the decor of its facades of former wealthy times. One of its occupants, John Brabin was a wealthy cloth merchant and funded the building of the school (now a private residence)and almshouses. There is ample parking in Chipping although the largest car park is height restricted. Some parking spots for camper vans adjacent. ## **Buildings** ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/403/original/img_3415.jpg) The former school (rear) and almshouses (right) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/450/original/img_3435.jpg) Porch to the former school ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/419/original/img_3436.jpg) Porch to the former school ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/411/original/img_3409.jpg) Almshouses ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/409/original/img_3412.jpg) Door to almshouse ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/457/original/img_3434.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/456/original/img_3433.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/470/original/img_3397.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/471/original/img_3396.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/487/original/img_3244.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/490/original/img_3245.jpg) Fire mark? ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/489/original/img_3248.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/491/original/img_3247.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/493/original/img_3251.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/502/original/img_3403.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/501/original/img_3405.jpg) Notice the blind window - which is part of the chimney flue ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/507/original/img_3407.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/601/original/img_3483.jpg) The Sun Inn from the church ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/605/original/img_3484.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/611/original/img_3488.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/607/original/img_3487.jpg) Door to the Sunn Inn ## St. Mary's Catholic Church *A luxurious interior and a grisly find* **This part of the world was a Catholic stronghold after the dissolution of the monasteries.** Many farms and halls had priest holes. Leagram Hall, nearby had a secret chapel. I came across this building by chance - tucked away beyond the former school house. Nothing prepared me for the sumptuous interior. Built in the 1820's. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/542/original/img_3419.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/541/original/img_3420.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/543/original/img_3426.jpg) Inside the church, this bag is said to have contained the decapitated head of a priest after he was slain whilst celebrating mass in 1848. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/550/original/img_3427.jpg) ## St. Bartholomew *Stone carved delights* **There's nothing as beautiful as a dalliance of steps leading the eye up to an ancient tower.** Our senses are being cajoled by the built environment -herded like the sheep that made Chipping's wealth into a frame of mind. I was prepared to be disappointed with the church at Chipping. I had read that its earliest fabric had been lost to Victorian improvements. It was wrong and, if its countenance is anything to go by, this little Church has everything going for it. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/553/original/img_3439.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/556/original/img_3444.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/580/original/img_3468.jpg) The font of 1520 displays several symbols including instruments of the passion.

Here a jocular grouping of faces followed by a bear. Shakespeare was alive when these stones were carved. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/573/original/img_3453.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/575/original/img_3461.jpg) This is something I've never seen depicted in such a fashion before - the Gothic tracery of a window. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/577/original/img_3462.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/576/original/img_3465.jpg) A serpent with a long tongue. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/578/original/img_3466.jpg) Did you hear the one about the two footballers wives? ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/584/original/img_3469.jpg) This trough is said to be Anglo-Saxon ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/016/057/614/original/img_3482.jpg) ## Chipping Farm Shop Full of local produce and lovely coffee.
