Clitheroe Castle + War Memorial.

Erected by the inhabitants of Clitheroe in remembrance of their fellow Townsmen who gave their lives in defence of their King and Country in The Great War 1914 - 1918.

There is a legend that the Devil threw a boulder from Pendle Hill and hit the castle creating the hole visible in its side today, but this hole was made in 1649 as ordered by the government. It was to be put in "such condition that in might neither be a charge to the Commonwealth to keep it, nor a danger to have it kept against them".
