I've cycled up to Flash a few times, tigger, from Wildboarclough ( had a pint or two in the pub at the bottom - whose name escapes me. Lunched in Blaze(?) Farm once too.I think you'd like Flash, just up the road from me Rich. Definitely bleak, and for the 10 days a year it's not covered in fog, it could be described as, erm, well... bleak!
