| Walk: | Dean Brook, Greengore, Spire Hill, Hare Hill, Chilsey Green, Stock Bridge, Stoneyhurst College | ||
| Start Point: | Hurst Green Village Hall car park | Grid Reference: | SD 684 382 |
| Distance: | 7.5 miles | Ascent: | 930 feet |
| Time: | 3.25 hours | ||
| Weather: | Sunny spells but a cold wind | ||
| Comments: | Repeating parts of a previous walk today's intention was to try out some of the less frequented paths on Longridge Fell. The terrain was quite difficult for one section but it was interesting to see the new planting amongst the cleared areas. An interesting day but there's more to explore!! | ||
