Doffcocker Lodge near Bolton photographed on 15 July 2015.
As part of a walk in the area we circled the lodge and stopped for a pint in a local pub before getting back to the car just after dark.
The lodge was originally constructed in 1874 to supply water to a local mill and is now a nature reserve.
The history of the name is not certain but it is believed to be Celtic meaning a dark winding stream. A stream which was originally dammed to form the lodge still flows into the lodge today.
