Two nests in Rawtenstall (only one was tenanted) in Longholme Methodist's churchyard behind Fitzpatricks.

First time I've known rooks breed in the town centre.

Since thinking about rookeries again I keep getting a (presumably false) memory of there being a rookery at St Mary's in Rawtenstall. Yet I can find no reference to it elsewhere. There is mention of a small rookery at The Fold way back in the early ROC rook reports and I suppose that isn't too far from the church.

Has anyone else any memories of rooks in the centre?

Jim
