Facit Quarry Woodland (Rossendale)

Facit Quarry is formed by a series of sites that were planted with larch trees in the 1980s & 90s.  The site is very steep and due to its quarrying history is very challenging underfoot.  The site covers over 30 hectares of woodland running down the west side of the Whitworth valley.  A network of informal paths and rights of way cross the site.
