Rivington to Hempshaws via Old Rachels

A walk of just under six miles on a warm and sunny July afternoon, from Rivington to Lead Mines Clough across rough pasture land and passing three farm ruins.

2011 Diary – Week 11

Yesterday I had a walk through Lead Mines Clough and then took the path that lead past several farm ruins on the lower slopes of Anglezarke Moor.
