Scammonden!!

Yep someone jumped off the 'furry ste' as my mate calls it! So named after He was once walking across and looked over the side and proclaimed in his broad Lancashire accent 'thats a fairish height'!!

Its not the first time someone has jumped from it....its a bit of a known suicide spot.

Nice, wish i'd known this morning so I could have checked for evidence....or maybe not.
