It occupies an area of approximately , part of an ancient woodland, with picturesque ''cloughs'' varying from steep ravines to sloping gullies. Clough is a local dialect word for a steep sided, wooded valley. Boggart Hole Clough was designated a Local Nature Reserve in 2008.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Boggart Hole Clough, Charlestown )〕 The park stages a number of cross-country events and mountain bike rides, along with summer fundays and an annual bonfire and firework display. It also provides facilities for a number of other activities, ranging from boating to athletics. It has been claimed that the clough is haunted by a boggart, a mischievous spirit found mainly in Lancashire and Yorkshire, perhaps in an attempt to explain the unusual name.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Mysterious Britain Gazetteer )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url= http://boggart-brewery.co.uk/wordpress/?page_id=22/boggart-story-boggart-brewery.html )〕 In 2008, Boggart Hole Clough attained the Green Flag Award for the eighth year running.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url= http://www.manchester.gov.uk/info/200073/parks_and_open_spaces/1816/boggart_hole_clough/1 )〕 The Boggart Hole Clough Brewery, established in 2000, takes its name from the park. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Boggart Hole Clough」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
