Dinkley: Celtic in origin the name means 'fort of the wood' Situated off the beaten track, Dinkley is unspoiled and possesses delightful walks, including that through Sale Wheel Woods to the Old Dinkley Ferry, now replaced by a low level suspension bridge. The Old Hacking Boat House is a reminder of when the ferryman would transport travellers accross the river (The Boat is now in Clitheroe Museum). Hacking Hall Stands on the opposite bank which was built by Thomas Livesey in 1607, part of the ferryboat's jetty can be seen by the riverside. The front of the Hall has 14 sets of mullioned windows. A public car park can be found here. |
