Overview

From the car park we will walk through the woods passing the Armada Beacon and fabulous views of Cheshire from the Edge.  We will exit into Squirrels Jump walking down to join Mottram Road, Trafford Road and crossing London Road to enter the park via a footpath, we will stop for our coffee break in the park, then continue through to Chorley Hall Lane, Blackshaw Lane across fields to reach a very high stile after going over the stile we cross the railway line via a footbridge to then join Welsh Row, crossing Congleton Road, to go up Bradford Lane, Hoker Lane Haymans Farm and Finlow Hill back to the start.
