Phil wrote:- My ‘Manchester’ Guided Walk on Wednesday 30th June starts at Piccadilly Rail Station at 7.30 pm. We walk the Ancoats and Angel Meadows areas of Manchester following the sites associated with the 1840’s Cholera Epidemics, showing a part of Manchester that was until recently airbrushed from history. A walk that I led about eight years ago. Pub stop at the Marble Arch Pub, 73 Rochdale Road M4 4HY (no photos yet???)
In a change to the published program Phil W. led a walk around Littleborough and Holligworth.
Phil wrote:- Sunday’s walk has had to be relocated from Baslow to Littleborough because of C***D. Meet at Littleborough Rail Station, Station Road, OL15 8AR for a departure time of 10.15. Trains from Manchester Victoria at 08.58 and 09.54.
We follow the Rochdale Way and Pennine Bridleway to our pub stop at the Moorcock Inn on Halifax Road. We continue north east of Littleborough to Warland then back along the Rochdale Canal to Summit. This gives us a choice to return via the Canal or Pennine Bridleway. Assumed 10 miles with ascents and descents.
