What an amazing structure and a very nice study of it. The sky helps too.

Mind, where is the weird fish?!

It's one of a series of sculptures sited at high points in the landscape around Lancashire. The wind was blowing so hard yesterday that it drowned out any singing or ringing that might have been going on but you can see how it would do so, given the structure.
The sculptures are called Panopticons, which I always thought was the name of a design for a doughnut shaped Victorian prison.

Can anyone help me to find out?

I may have to go have a look next time i'm in Accrington

I expect you could easily get there in a quarter of an hour from Accrington.
