Walk Wycoller 01/10/2017

Jack M. led a walk starting at Wycoller country park.

Jack wrote:- This weeks walk took us to an area that was new to to the group, based on Wycoller near Coln.  We started at the Atom Panopticon where there were extensive views towards Pendal Hill. We then dropped down into Wycoller to view the remains of the hall and the 18th century crook barn now used as the visitors centre, though some people decided to partake of the excellent tea rooms instead.
Once we got everyone together again we passed over the thousand year old clapper bridge before ascending Boulsworth Hill. Our descent took us into Trawden where we had a brief pub stop.
Despite an appalling weather forecast, apart from drizzle in the last half hour, we managed to keep reasonably dry.
