We are the Mortimer Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

Along lanes and footpaths to Upper Lye, then more footpaths to Honeyhole, Gripeness, and Darky Dale (where we might see snowdrops). Returning via Bedstone and Mynd Farm. Some good views on this quiet and pleasant walk, one short steepish hill on the way out and then another on the way back.
The area around Darky Dale has long been been famous for snowdrops, but if the sheep have got there first then they will all have been eaten!
If you would like to join this walk, please book a place with the leader. If you are unable to attend, please cancel your booking so that someone else can take your place. If you turn up without booking, we may have to turn you away.
Bring a packed lunch.
Car sharing is encouraged to minimise car parking, fuel cost and carbon footprint.
Assistance dogs only.
Park next to the primary school in Bucknall village. On reaching the village, turn left immediately after crossing the railway line. The school is 50m along this lane. OS map Exp 201
