Overview

The walk goes through the Art Park - access via steps. Up onto Irlam Moss, with quiet roads and footpaths, mostly flat terrain Likely to be muddy/slippy in places, uneven surfaces, watch out for tree roots. Off the moss we'll take care crossing the A57. Into Princes Park where there are toilets and refreshments - cash only. Then footpath round the Old River and through Linear Park - possibly muddy, slippy, wet leaves, tree roots.
