Introduction

I have created this blog for those living on the edge of the Lancashire Yorkshire border to share my enjoyment of walking the hills and moors and enjoying the scenery. That is even if you do get wet in the process.

Yesterday started misty but it was only low cloud and by the time we arrived at Long Causeway above Todmorden the cloud had lifted enough to walk safely and enjoy the views even if it was hazy into the distance. Starting at the Moorcock Pub we passed the abandoned reservoir and the radio beacon looking jsut like an alien space craft. The Bridestones were clear though there were puddles in the hollows. We passed the ancient stone cross along the ancient road heading towards the modern windmills. Passing under Hawk Craggs we had a good view of the sculptured giant toilet on top and returned along the road the mile to the pub.

A walk of about 4 1/2 miles was enjoyed by all and took only a couple of hours.
