Walk description
We start walking through Ecclesfield Park, go past the church and on to Lee Shrogs Wood, continuing across fields towards Whitley Hall. We then take a path across more fields to Horbury Lane and Foxfield Spring Wood. (Familiar territory for regular Wednesday Walkers.) From the wood we cross the cow field heading towards Elliott Lane, then down to Wood Seats. There is a short section alongside the busy A61 before we reach a path through Greno Woods that leads to Wood End. Further road walking (a quiet road this time) and we reach the hamlet of Whitley, then across the fields back to Lee Shrogs and the park. Distance 4.5 miles.
Please note: There are several stiles en route.
