17C farm building, Forest of Bowland, Lancashire
This beautiful former farm building, known as Merrybent Hill, has the date 1688 carved into a lintel. It is a few miles to the north of Slaidburn, in the middle of the Forest of Bowland - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Grade II-listed building now advertises itself as a B&B. In the distance can be seen Pendle Hill, which rises to 1,827 feet above sea level. The story of the Pendle witches is a notorious example of cases brought against alleged witches in 17th-century England.
