Bolton: Passing the Fred Dibnah Statue


While walking round the streets of Bolton town centre, early morning, it was an honour to pass the statue of the late great, Fred Dibnah, who was an amazing steeplejack and wonderful TV personality, of course.

Can still remember Fred Dibnah working on Bury Parish church many years ago, with people saying that they chatted with him in the Two Tubs during his lunchtime.

Overall, Bolton looked pretty interesting as the last remnants of darkness started to give way to daylight:


 With church buildings starting to pop up:


 Unfortunately, the one below is no longer in use as a church:


 The tops of other buildings also looked quite ornate:


 And an indoor market entrance too:


 Sadly, another church building no longer being used as a church:


 Yeah, daybreak in Bolton town centre turned out to be a worthwhile experience.
