Walk: Alston Reservoirs, Meadow Head, Ox Hey, Eatough's Farm, Ribchester Road, Elm House, Blackburn Road
Start Point: Home    
Distance: 5.3 miles Ascent: 210 feet
Time: 2 hours
Weather: A lovely mild day
Comments: With a couple of days of dry weather I decided on a walk through fields that I thought would be reasonably dry. A couple of wet areas were easy to get round but some stiles were difficult for Luna to navigate.

Luna leads the way along the footpath

Longridge Fell comes onto view straight ahead . . .

while Pendle appears to the right

Unusual to see a Jacob sheep (ram) in a field with other sheep

Near Elm House the Roman Stones are still standing but the Fort has now disappeared

And in 2016 before it fell into disrepair
