Walk: Snow Hill Lane, Wyre Way, Street Bridge, Foxhouses, Wyresdale Park
Start Point: Wyresdale Park car park Grid Reference: SD 508 490 
Distance: 6.5 miles Ascent: 270 feet
Time: 2.5 hours
Weather: The hottest day of the year - 34+ degrees
Comments: We had started the walk early and much of the route was in woodland so we weren't affected by the heat. However the footpaths were very muddy for much of the way. A very enjoyable lunch at the Apple Store who catered very well with the Coronavirus restrictions.
