Parked at Brindle Village Hall then walked to the church. Rght through the churchyard to see some of the cross bases and gravestones that had been rescued from the surrounding area.
Left the church via a small gate then continued to the right along Sandy Lane. Left up Smithy Lane then right along a track into a field. Just before a pylon cable, turned right through gap into a field heading for a bridge over the M65.
Immediately right after the bridge and followed a fence to Hillhouse Farm.
Continued to a junction then turned right to a junction at Sandy
Lane. Straight across and down a bridleway to re-cross the Motorway then back into Brindle.
Lots of birds singing plus the bonus of a Roe Deer.
The highlight of the walk was the constant birdsong, especially from a host of Song Thrushes.
We had time to lean on gates to appreciate the beautiful summer's evening.
