Walk: Downham Moor, Pendle Hill, Pendle House, Barley, Lower Black Moss, Raven's Holme
Start Point: Downham car park Grid Reference: SD 784 440 
Distance: 8 miles Ascent: 2,000 feet
Time: 4.5 hours
Weather: Mild but overcast
Comments: Luna accompanied me for this walk over Pendle Hill. There were a couple of stiles that were difficult for her and the harness was useful to help her over them. Unfortunately there were a lot of sheep around so she couldn't be off lead as much as I would have hoped. We were both tired by the end of the walk and she was zonked out for the rest of the day.

Are we ready?

The shelter by the wall is a relatively new addition on Pendle Hill

Do you expect me to carry the backpack???
