View from Pendle Hill, looking South-East.

View from Pendle Hill, looking South-East.
Photographed from near the top of Pendle Hill using an Olympus AZ1 camera. This was one of my first digital cameras and it only had 3.2 megapixels but the results were usually quite good, considering the low resolution.
SEE NOTES.

In 1652, during the early years of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers), George Fox had a vision while on top of Pendle Hill.

"As we travelled, we came near a very great hill, called Pendle Hill, and I was moved of the Lord to go up to the top of it; which I did with difficulty, it was so very steep and high. When I was come to the top, I saw the sea bordering upon Lancashire. From the top of this hill the Lord let me see in what places he had a great people to be gathered."

Today Pendle remains strongly linked to the Quakers, giving its name to one of their centres for religious and spiritual study and contemplation in the United States.

This evokes long ago memories. beautiful.

The Quaker brotherhood were men well ahead of their times too. Many of their safe-guarding covenants still exist. They found ways to protect things they could only dream would exist.
