Nine people turned out for this little sortie. Weather: dry morning, light rain after dinner but dry under foot, alleluia!
The start point was the Memorial Park, Great Harwood, heading North down Allsprings road down to the footpath that leads to the back of the Hyndburn Bridge pub, then south west following the path along Hyndburn brook and on to Tottleworth before following the line of the old railway Blackburn to Burnley line  to Lower Cunliffe farm.
We then climbed up through the old quarry to  Blackburn Old ,road across then down to Parsonage reservoir and our lunch stop.Then into York road and onto Dean Clough Reservoir continuing above the reservoir and onto Whittle Hall Farm.Then along Moor Lane following the road around making our way onto Shawcliffe Lane then onto Dean Lane coming back to the park and our vehicles slightly wet but a good work out and everybody seemed happy.
