My Sunday short walk is a pleasant amble from the Stamford Arms pub in Bowdon to Dunham Park via Green Walk.
Please meet as usual at Brooklands Met for 9:45 with a view to car sharing and prompt departure at 10am.

We will start walking at 10:30/40am approximately and the walk duration is about 3 hours.

We will drive to the start point which is :
The Stamford Arms Pub(car park behind)

Walk Grading: E
Directions to the Start: (approx 20 minutes)

• Turn right onto Brooklands Road
• At the roundabout take the 3rd exit onto Shaftesbury Avenue/ A560
• Continue to follow A560 into Altrincham for 2 miles
• Continue onto Dunham Road past Loreto Grammar School on the right
• Turn left onto St. Margaret’s Road
• Turn right on to The Firs
• The Stamford Arms pub will be on your left(park in car park or on main road)

The Walk:
This is a pleasant 6-7 mile flat walk down Green Walk, across Dunham Road and walking through Dunham Golf Course to reach Charcoal Road.
We go over the stile into Dunham Park and walk clockwise taking in the flora/fauna and natural beauty of this local NT property.(NO membership cards required)
Once we reach the Hall and Stables restaurant we will have a lunch break.
There are toilets here and an opportunity to buy ice cream and a little further away is the cafe which serves takeaway and sit down fare.
The only known hazards on this lovely country walk are other walkers , crossing Dunham Road which is VERY busy and pesky golfers of both sexes!
If you normally use poles and wear gaiters please carry on this fine tradition!
The Stamford Arms pub serves excellent beer/wine and refreshments and pub grub so I fully anticipate lots of folk popping in here after the walk
NO DOGS on this occasion as there are usually lots in the park already!
Hope you can join me!
Kind regards
