Thornhill Beck Lane to Hartshead

The Walk
The walk involves paths and tracks through fields and woods as well as some road walking and crossing a golf course . As usual there is both up hill and down hill walking. The first part is the steepest up the old railway embankment then down steps on the other side, but it can be avoided.
Start may be delayed due to delays to traffic on the main road due to roadworks.
