High in the South Pennines, by Scout Moor Wind Farm, at the junction of Croston Close Road and Edenfield/Rochdale Road, is the boundary between the Borough of Rossendale and the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale, which in turn is the post-1974 county boundary between Lancashire and Greater Manchester (respectively). The boundary is marked by various welcome signage, include those pictured here for Rossendale and Lancashire.
