ABC Wednesday - F is for Flowery Field

Here is the station on the line from Glossop to Manchester Piccadilly.


Here is the church, an independent non-denominational Church affiliated to the General Assembly of Unitarian and Free Christian Churches. It opened in 1878.


Were you expecting a field full of flowers? Forget it! It is still February and it is flipping freezing and the ground is full of frost.


Nonetheless the local council has been spending its budget on floral furniture, and on Hyde DP it as a Frosty Morning at Stonepit Reservoir.

  1. The church appears to be standing in the middle of the road. Maybe when the flowers bloom, you can take another photo.

  15. So, is Flowery Field the name of the place? Sometimes place names can be so evocative of an image, and then...
