Mossley on Monday: Something Strange on the Skyline


People passing through Mossley at the moment may get a small surprise as they spot something odd on the skyline. The spire of St John's Church, Roughtown, is currently undergoing repair work and is cloaked in scaffolding. As the church is situated on a very prominent position on the corner of the hill overlooking Mossley and Greenfield, it can be seen from some distance away. It previously appeared on this blog in a wintry photograph.

  1. Fascinating photograph! Beautiful area. I admire the spire though it appears on fire...but maybe that's only the sun!

  2. They are probably strengthening it up to put a wind turbine on - knowing Tameside planning - it would get the go-ahead.
