A pair of adventurous brothers turned their local beauty spot into a winter wonderland - by building an igloo.
Jordan Hilton, 34, and little brother Liam, 25, used builders buckets to create snow bricks during the recent cold snap.
They built the structure on the 1,190 ft high Rivington Pike in Chorley, Lancashire, UK last Sunday and even cooked a meal inside once construction was complete.

00:00Right so we're back at the spot where me and Sarah come last night with the tent.
00:04So I'm with my brother Liam and we're going to try and build an igloo.
00:09So I've literally just got some old buckets I got from site
00:13years ago so let's see how quick I can fill these.
00:23No time.
00:24Right I think with it being plastic it's going to come out that easy because it won't stick
00:35straight away watch.
00:37Right so I've got one bucket there yeah let's see if it'll
00:40if I leave them here for now and I'll just keep oh my god
00:44Oh my god! Sick!
00:49And then another thing I found was um
00:54we were double layered instead of having one wall I literally doubled it up and then when
00:59you come up and curve you've got you've got that second one in the up that holds it.
01:06Yes laid.
01:08So the way this is going where it's shorter we might even have to start the curve at the back.
01:24So Liam is I'm just getting in some snow
01:29and he's filling all the gaps in to make it all secure.
01:38It's so cool.
01:43Here we go.
01:48There's no wind in here at all.
01:52My glasses have been full on windburn.
01:55Brew time.
02:00So each block you can see we've come in probably
02:0450 to 100 millimetres time. I'll try to.
02:09I swear to god man.
02:14Looking fresh.
02:17Yeah.
02:34This is all Lee's work.
02:39Proper igloo style.
02:48So what I'm doing now I'm literally just throwing
02:52snowballs up to fill in the gaps.
02:57This is so sick.
03:28So
03:46right we've done it.
03:49So Lee's got the cooker on in there getting all nice and warm. Liam cooks us a butter.
03:58This is it.
04:01That is definitely something we should both be proud of.
04:05It's far from like finished but we can't do no more today really.
04:11I've been up here for hours.
04:27So
