I think it's Colne Cemetery. The spire stands out very clearly as I drive down the hill towards Colne, it confused me for ages.

I suppose you'd have to skin the cow in a spiral cut to the width of belt required. What's the circumference and length of a cow? Divide the cow length by the belt width then multiply by the circumference and, bingo, you'll have the length of belt!Stanley wrote:The wonder of it is that there is 100ft on this spool, never seen a cow 100ft long......

Wendy is right. Colne cemetery chapel. A very interesting building providing you're not going there as a customer. Lots of ornamental features and carvings.

Looks like something that flew out of you're ball point pen, which you then lost, but by the time you found it you had thrown the pen away.

David is right. The orange jobby is the modern replacement for round leather driving belt for overhead gears and other light drives. It is tubular and the connector is simply pushed into each end when it is installed. Try this one.....

You're near enough. They are small components left over when Johnny Pickles made his wonderful model of a mill engine.
Try this one....

I know what (and who) it is. It's easy if you've bought the book, and turn to page sixty nine.

Yes Kev, it's a turret clock, but which one? (Well done David!)
