The lesser-known River Ribble, that is, the Yorkshire one (a minor tributary of the Holme) rather than the Lancashire one. The footpath from Greave Road descends the steep field on the east side of the river, crosses it by a footbridge and turns left to ascend more gently into the woods on the west bank. The body of water on the left is the settling pond of the redundant treatment works (now demolished) - see Image
