26th: Moorland Ramble
15 of us, and two dogs, were out for this walk
which took us from Glossop onto Bleaklow Head via Swineshew Reservoir
and Clough Head. It was a long, but easy ascent to this aptly named
wilderness, in cool and cloudy, but dry conditions. After following the
Pennine way to "Old Woman" we took the Doctor's Gate path -how do these
places get their names?!- and Shelf Brook to Old Glossop where we had a
welcome drink at The Queens before completing the walk through Manor
Park. Not a bad old tramp!
