Village of Dunsop Bridge


Depending on how you calculate it,the village of Dunsop Bridge in the heart of the Forest of Bowland is the centre of the Uk.British Telecom celebrated by putting its 100,000 phone box on its village green.However depending on how you calculate it,the centre lies 7km north at a place called Whitendale Hanging Stones.


Wherever the centre lies,it doesn't detract from the fact that the village with the River Dunsop running thru it is one of the prettiest.
