Route: from the car park in Clapham (£2.50 for 2 hours), taking the road north and then a track east of the church through two very dark and stony tunnels and then up onto the shoulder of the hillside of Norber. Straight on and down to a crossroads with a minor road, taking a left turn heading uphill, the road becoming a track. On this to a grassy bridleway which turns left and goes uphill again near Crummack. At this point mistakenly bearing too far left and thus ending up too far to the south to reach the cairn on Long Scar so striking across rough country to reach the gate in a wall and downhill on a stony walled track (Long Lane) eventually rising to meet the outward path and return through the tunnels.
Conditions: cloudy but stuffy and humid.
Pub: The Bunkhouse Café Bar, Clapham, for Taylor’s Landlord (joined by Mark and Sandra)
