That's good mate.
Semi feral piglets from my run in the countryside today.
Lovely little things.
Here are 2 churches located in the stunning Trough of Bowland.

The Roman Catholic Church of St. Hubert’s was built to the design of Edward Pugin, from, it is believed, with the winnings of the racehorse Kettledrum owned by Colonel Charles Towneley of Towneley Hall, Burnley in the 1861 Epsom Derby.
The church was opened on 2 May 1865 by Richard Roskell the then Roman Catholic Bishop of Nottingham. The medieval font was originally from the ancient church at Burholme near Whitewell.
The east and west windows are by J. B. Capronnier of Brussels and date from 1865. In its early years, the church was served by the Jesuit Order, from Stonyhurst. The middle west window depicts St. Hubert who is the patron saint of hunters, as a huntsman accompanied by a stag.
There is a gabled northwest porch, a sacristy giving off the south side, and a bellcote holding one bell at the west end. The walls have a perimeter plinth and are buttressed at the corners of the nave and around the apse, and there are stone hoodmoulds over the lancet windows. At the west end are triple lancet windows, over a high continuous sill. The roofs are of slate; the original decorative ridge tiles have been lost.
The Forest of Bowland was once a royal hunting forest, and according to legend St. Hubert’s conversion to Christianity took place on a Good Friday when, while hunting a stag, he saw a vision of a cross between its antlers and heard a voice telling him to seek instruction in the Christian faith.

Nestled under an arc of steep-sided hills, Saint Eadmer's Church occupies a picturesque location in the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is located in the secluded hamlet of Bleasdale (“Blesi’s Valley” or “The Bare Spot on the Hillside”), which lies approximately 7 miles east of the Lancashire town of Garstang (“Spear Post”), in the upper valley of the River Brock.
The first church on the site was in fact constructed back in 1577 but it gradually fell into disrepair. The church was rebuilt in 1835 by John Dewhurst and restored/enlarged in 1897.
St Eadmer's Church has a unique dedication, celebrating the Northumbrian monk who discovered the site of Durham Cathedral. Saint Eadmer’s at Bleasdale is the only church in England dedicated to that saint. He was a 10th century Northumbrian monk and apparently it was revealed to him in a vision that the body of Saint Cuthbert should be taken to Durham (“Island with a Hill”) for re-burial, after it had been removed from the Holy Island of Lindisfarne (“Island of the Travellers from Lindsey”) which was starting to come under attack from marauding Vikings. Durham Cathedral would later be constructed over Saint Cuthbert’s tomb and this may explain why the church at Bleasdale was dedicated to Saint Eadmer.
