Goodshaw, Lancashire Weather
About Goodshaw, Lancashire
Goodshaw occupies the steep, gritstone slopes of the Rossendale valley, where the rugged spine of the Pennines asserts a heavy, grey influence upon the horizon. It lies 1.9 miles north of Rawtenstall (from Rawtenstall: bearing 4°T, OS grid SD 813 258), and is situated south of Dunnockshaw village. Stone cottages cling to the incline, their dark masonry absorbing the pale, thin light that filters down from the high moors. To the east, the rush of Folly Clough Brook carves a sharp, audible incision through the hillside, feeding the damp earth with a persistent, cold clarity. Higher up, the broad, brooding shape of Bonfire Hill commands the skyline, a reminder of the ancient fires that once signalled across these lonely, wind-battered heights. Industrial echoes remain in the solid, unyielding architecture, where the legacy of woollen mills still informs the stern character of the local streetscape. Goodshaw maintains a quiet, hard-won endurance, seemingly shaped more by the insistent rain and the upward pull of the terrain than by the fleeting fashions of the modern world.
