Barley is FULL!

[Aclaret]

Plenty of room in Bacup when we went on Sunday !

[Sproggy]

That's Trawden!

Oi! Just cos we've now got a shop.

[Fenwick]

AND electricity! To be fair at least we can get a mobile signal in Trawden. Get past Thorneyholme near Barley and your phone goes dead. The locals don't allow masts and suchlike.

The locals do allow masts and do have masts, the mobile operators don’t see them as cost effective to maintain. However, don’t let the facts get in the way of you being a ****.

Jack Moore's monkey. That takes me back. My gran used to talk about that.

Jack Moore's monkey ..... is that a euphemism for somet.

No, but Jack Moore’s Wife’s Monkey is.

Pay attention if you are going to comment.
It is busy all the time and is getting worse, regardless of the weather.
You are right though about the two pubs and the Cabin doing well out of it, although that is of no use to anyone else.

Sorry for the late reply. I was up pendle. No signal. Dunno whether it was the rural location or all the tourists hogging the network!

Of course you are, just don't park in a residents garden, don't threaten elderly people who can't park in their disabled space, don't let your dog **** where it wants, don't throw your coffee cups in the river and don't be a dick.

And don’t look at any bulldogs whilst eating your lunch.

Every request (apart from the last one, obviously) accepted.

[bobinho]

Never be able to look at a bulldog again without wee’ing myself.

[atlantalad]

No, but Jack Moore’s Wife’s Monkey is.

Now I see. Jack Moore is Fenwicks grandpa. . Or was his grandma unrelated and just happy to see his monkey.

I'm setting off for Barley straight after tomorrows game. Park up near a drive or pinch point in the road get a few beers in the Pendle Inn get a taxi home then walk back Sunday morning to visit the sculpture trail and a picnic next to the river.

[ALP]

Must admit to not parking in the village as I know better than to do that, however I had a lovely couple of hours in the woods......

Never been to Barley, but it sounds lovely.

Will be oop north this coming weekend and will be bringing the family for a a walk round and a few pints. Looking forward to it.....I need a good regular Sunday venue as I'm going to be in Lancs every second weekend from now on.

presuming Barley caters for the disabled, as i'll be bringng the minibus and need to ensure nobody parks too close to my ramps.

[Winstonswhite]

Fell race from Barley tomorrow morning, Turf in the afternoon. That’s what Saturdays in Spring were made for !

[1968claret]

Whilst I do understand the OPs frustrations, I don’t understand why he just doesn’t beam himself up when it gets a tad busy?

[Pstotto]

Bosscat, St. Martins College is in Lancaster. Common people at St. Martins School of Art in London????????????

[yorkyclaret]

Yes packed again today, fell race and a visit from Skipton over 60s lycra wearers club, I only had to block one car in though.

[yorkyclaret]

Pretty empty today, only 7 motors on the car park when I got there!

[Billy Balfour]

I once went to Barley and had a meal in the pub. This is my Barley story.

[IanMcL]

I had b&b there once. I remember doing a recci beforehand....witches everywhere!

[Loyalclaret]

Lovely morning to be out walking today, even got a spot outside the houses across from the Barley Mow- only had to move one cone

I'm on my way with the mad Springer

[CaptainKirk]

Like I said previously, Loyalclaret, most visitors aren’t a problem (we are all visitors somewhere at some point), just the prats.

[Goalposts]

Today is a. Pendle climbing day, clear skys , fresh temperature and a bank holiday.. i suspect that this thread might live up to its title

[Alanstevensonsgloves]

I went through Earby yesterday. I must admit, I didn't see the point of it.

[Volvoclaret]

Once went to Earby Lead Mining Museum. Full of heavy metal fans

That is barely a Barley story!

What about the parking?

[Leon_C]

Can confirm that Barley was pretty busy, this morning. I think it's something of a tradition to climb Hill Hill Hill of a Good Friday. Perfect weather for it, barely even a breeze at the top.
