Inside the Dish A rare view of the inside of the 76m Lovell Telescope at Jodrell Bank, taken from the telescope rim. Radio waves are reflected from the surface and focussed into the focus box at the top of the scaffolding visible here.

The Mark II Telescope The 25 x 28 metre "Mark II" telescope at Jodrell Bank. Despite its odd shape, representing something of a giant, deformed Pringle, the Mark II is routinely used either as a single telescope, or as part of the MERLIN or VLBI collaborations, which use telescopes over middle England (for MERLIN) or the entire globe (for VLBI) to get very high-resolution radio images of the cosmos.

Viaduct over the Peover Eye This (fairly) tall railway viaduct over the Peover Eye (a local river) can be seen from Batemill Lane, a quiet country lane that winds its way through the square.

Rope Swing in Rural Cheshire If only more old tires could go to homes as good as this swing, in the middle of a field near the crux of Bomish Lane and Bridge Lane. A rough path here is followed on the far side of the field by a footpath through to Blackden Hall.
