Peel Mill Sits Near the Top of the A671
Market Street (the A671) climbs about 160 metres over the 5.7 miles from Rochdale town centre to our workshop, then peaks at around 307 metres a third of a mile further north before dropping into Bacup. At this height Shawforth runs roughly 1°C colder than Rochdale, at the standard rate air cools with altitude. Here is what that does to a car.
Stone chips. Gritted winter roads throw stones at bonnets, front bumpers and mirrors.
Salt on sills and arches. Road salt gets into chips and scratches and starts rust on the bare metal.
Kerb scuffs on ice. Low-speed slides on ice scuff bumpers and kerb alloy wheels.
Get chips and scratches sealed before the first frosts and winter salt has no bare metal to work on.
