This is a circular walk partly on the Gritstone Trail and links with our previous

Lamaload Reservoir, Works, Wells, MS, Rainow, Tower Hill, Kerridge Hill, White
Nancy, Bollington (possible refreshment at either The Green Bollington or Café
Waterside but bring picnic), Sowcar, Berristall Dale, Brink Farm, Pt 407, Further

Harrop Farm, Harrop Fold Farm, Blue Boar Farm, Memorial Stone*, Lamaload
Reservoir.
“HERE JOHN TURNER WAS CAST AWAY IN A HEAVY SNOW STORM IN THE NIGHT IN OR
ABOUT THE YEAR 1755”. And on the other side “THE PRINT OF A WOMANS (sic) SHOE
WAS FOUND BY HIS SIDE WERE (sic) HE LAY DEAD”.
I am, of course, hoping for better weather and fewer dead bodies. Please join me
for this penultimate stage of the Gritstone Trail.
Please let me know if you would like to join us on this walk and/or would
like to lift share.
