Date: Thursday, 29th February 2024
Start time: 10:30
Grade: Moderate
Distance: 6.0 miles
Walk description
Leaving Mytham Bridge, we cross the A6187 and make our way through Shatton and all the way up Shatton Lane. Joining Brough Lane we pass Shatton mast and continue on Brough Lane, stopping for lunch and a chance to admire the cement factory before heading down to Brough on Noe. From here we follow walking trails through woods and fields, returning to Shatton and back over the road to Mytham Bridge.
The walk starts with a long ascent but after this is fairly level or downhill. Most of the walk is road or rough track which should be good at this time of the year. There will be areas of mud and water of course but mostly avoidable or minor.
