Waterside Bridge, Colne, Lancashire

The ancient Lancashire town of Colne is built on high ground between two valleys, which run roughly east to west, about a mile apart. The southerly valley is that of Colne Water, which is seen here passing under Waterside Bridge. Spring Gardens Mill is seen in the distance. A site visitor adds: I believe Spring Gardens Mill was on the left of the picture (beyond where the white cones are) and the Mill in the distance is Haslems Mill. We used to climb up the inside of the tower of Haslems and play on the roof in our early teens. My Grandparents used to live on Spring Garden St.
