Walk description
We begin in the village of Shepley, and follow tracks and fields to the outskirts of Stocksmoor. We then continue along wooded paths and fields to the village of Farnley Tyas, where we will have lunch. We then have a short section of road before following further fields, dropping downhill into a small wood and crossing a railway line. A steep ascent brings us to the edge of Thurstonland where we follow the road downhill, to take a track into the village of Fulstone and back to Shepley.
