A short run to fill the short time available.
Route: exiting the Mill Yard over the footbridge and heading north east across fields past the sewage works to the track to Side House. Up the valley to join the road and down this to Hall Road. A little further on taking the path across fields and pretty bridge to Low Elfhowe and then back via Scroggs Farm.
Conditions: mild, cloudy but some hints of blue sky
Pub: the Hawkshead Brewery, Staveley for WPA and Hop Black.
