Walk description
From the car park we soon pass through the old quarry. A short uphill then onto a fairly level walled lane, with extensive views. Leaving the lane we drop down to cross (a rickety) wooden bridge over Marsden Clough. Working our way back uphill we cross open moorland to reach Issues Road, a flat track which we follow for approx 2km to reach the village of Holme. Bearing left the path takes us towards Bilberry and Digley reservoirs where we cross the embankment separating the two. A short walk through woodland then returns us to the car park.
