| Walk: | Springs Farm, Scott House, Stoneygate Lane, Moor Nook, Cutler's Hill, Old Clitheroe Road, The Newdrop, Moor Hey | ||
| Start Point: | Manor Cottahe, Knowle Green | ||
| Distance: | 6 miles | Ascent: | 800 feet |
| Time: | 2.75 hours | ||
| Weather: | Dry with a little sun | ||
| Comments: | The beginning of the walk was quite picturesque but, as expected, the fields were boggy. Careful navigation was needed as there are many footpaths to choose from. | ||
Quite a drop from the path to the stream . . .
which has deep, steep banks
An autumn scene in the woods
Some interesting properties on the route . . .
with access by the ford . . .
but I'll take the bridge
The field barn . . .
has some impressive crux beams
Huntingdon Hall . . .
which was in existence in the early part of the 17th century
The sun breaks through the cloud . . .
as I walk along the Old Clitheroe Road . . .
and past the Newdrop Inn
Follow the leader
Glad I don't need to cross here!
