Tandle Hills

Situated in Royton, the hills are consist of a combination of open grasslands and Beech woodlands. The trees were originally planted to stop radicals using the area to practice marching in the aftermath of the Peterloo Massacre. The land was privatised before being give to the public in the early stages of the last century.

enough of the history lesson, lets see some pictures!

Believe it or not, this was actually the first time that I have been to this park. For years I have heard people tell tales of the fun to be had on a sledge, or the wonders of dog walking here. Obviously, I wanted to experience it for myself... however, there was no snow. No sledging today!

on a separate note. Whilst here, we was followed by a young pup with no owner. Naturally we were concerned. Thankfully, we were able to reunite pup with owner. No greater feeling!
