Turton and Edgworth railway station

Turton and Edgworth railway station was on what is now the Northern Rail Ribble Valley Line. In spite of its name, it was actually in the village of Chapeltown, Lancashire. In light of this, the station underwent a number of name changes, including Edgworth and Chapeltown (the latter of which was too easily confused with Chapeltown, South Yorkshire). Its neighbouring stations are still operational. There have been calls to reopen the station by the Ribble Valley Rail user group.

Turton and Entwistle Reservoir

Turton and Entwistle Reservoir is a water reservoir in the town of Edgworth, Lancashire. The reservoir's existence is due to the Entwistle Dam. When constructed in 1832 the Entwistle Dam was the highest in Britain; it rises 108 feet from the base. The reservoir contains almost 750 thousand imperial gallons (roughly 3,400,000 litres) and, with the Wayoh Reservoir just below, satisfies around 50% of Bolton's need for drinking water.
