More about this scene
The River Ribble in summer is the most pleasant of rivers, and to picnic and paddle by its banks has been a delight for many centuries. Here we see a photograph of children enjoying a day at Bungerley Bridge, north of Clitheroe. The young lad in the centre is obviously proud of his boat, but the young ladies on the right do not look too happy, do they? Waddow Hall, at the north side of the bridge, is a 16th-century building with additions of 1630. It was the home of the dowager lady of the Tempest family; it was bought by the Girl Guide Association in 1928.
