OFT - (Off the Grane),
On approaching this cache, take the path to the right of the gate, there is a footpath sign here but it is broken at the moment. The path runs to the right of the quarry and is elevated.
Halo - A Panopticon in Haslingden, Rossendale, Lancashire.
Designed by John Kennedy of LandLab, 'Halo' is an 18m-diameter steel lattice structure supported on a tripod five metres above the ground. The core is open at the top, framing views of the sky. The steelwork has a natural silver appearance, which will temper to matt as the galvanised finish weathers. A unique feature of this Panopticon is that it is lit after dark and glows a sky-blue colour, giving the effect of hovering above the town. The lighting, using low-energy LEDs and powered by an adjacent wind turbine, is designed to minimise light pollution and avoid any disruption to wildlife.
