Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Bolton by Bowland, West Riding of Yorkshire This 1970 photograph shows one of the handsome direction signs which the West Riding County Council had erected at a large number of minor road junctions in the County. They gave the six-figure National Grid reference of the junction so were very useful to map-reading cyclists and pedestrians. But in 1974, a large area of the Forest of Bowland, including Bolton, passed to the administration of Lancashire. In an act of crass vandalism, Lancashire County Council had the tops of these signs hacksawed off. |
