Yes there was an old relic of a plane that had been previously used for target practice on Cockerham Sands in the early 1970īs. My Grandfather would walk with his cattle from Highfurlong Farm at Carleton, Near Blackpool to Abbeystead in the good old days. He would break his journey and spend the night at Pilling Mill.
Does anyone remember the story about grass turf being sold from Pilling to be used as the new football turf at Wembley when it was first built? I would like to know the name of the local company who supplied the turf and why on Earth was Pilling selected?
