Restored Cottage near River Ribble This cottage, as late as the 1950's, was the home of the ferryman. Anyone wishing to cross the River Ribble could hail him (even from the opposite shore) He would then row people across the river for a few pence. Because of the ferry and the proximity of Hacking Hall the place was known as "Hacking Boat"
