This is true
as can be shown by the fact that it happens again about a mile further west. It's the lie of the land. I imagine because it was more cost effective to do that than buy the house and demolish it, and then try to create a level foundation to lay the road on.

If they wanted him out, they would have just kicked him out like what happened to some old couple in Lincolnshire when they built a bypass.

I suspect...
things would have been slightly different if the M62 was being built today!

Actually, come to think of it, if the M62 was being built today, it may have taken a completely different route - there'd have been so many eco-warrior on the case trying to prevent the destruction of so many hills etc.

If you want to avoid the Pennines altogether, you can go all the way up the A65 past Skipton, round the edge of the Dales and the Forest of Bowland, go left at Ingleton, then join the M6 and go south.

Would eco-warriors still get in a flap if the hills in concern were so bleak and inhospitable not even sheep will live up there (e.g. Holme Moss)?
