Overview

Join us for this walk that takes us from Higher House Lane, around the bottom edge of the Nab, up to the Cairn.  At the Cairn; we will rest and take in the view, Blackpool Tower and other land marks can be seen on a clear day!  From the Cairn we will follow a moorland path, until we reach Watermans Cottage.  We then take the path towards White Coppice; where sheep are often grazing. On reaching the the cricket ground, we then follow the road until we reach a wooden bridge, that will take us through the fields, up to Heapey fishing lodges and back to Higher House Lane.
