On arrival at Ribblehead, I left Andy behind in an effort to get to Blea Moor signal box. In anticipation of it being quite a trek, I had borrowed my son's mountain bike and folded it up in the back of Andy's Nissan Micra using it to pedal as far as I could to the location of the box high up on the fells. The 1941 LMS box is incredibly remote with no road access with a very rough track that doubles as a footpath leading past the rear of the box. I took a less direct route as I needed a view from the front that involved some 'off-piste' cycling followed by some scrambling! The box has an interesting history that is documented, along with details on its operations, in a series of SRS videos on their website at...... https://www.s-r-s.org.uk/videoPages/BleaMoor.php
