SOLD OUT – Lost farms guided walk 1 – Ratten clough

SOLD OUT – Sorry for any disappointment. There are still spaces on the 21st July and 18th August walks (scroll to the right under ‘adult events’). Please get in touch if you would like to go on a waiting list for this walk (email info@wildwooddays.co.uk).

This is a re-run of one of last year’s guided walks funded by Historic England as part of the Lost Farms of Brinscall Moors community history project. This is route 1 which covers the north end of Brinscall Moor and include the ruins of Ratten Clough, Solomon’s temple and Botany Bay.

Starting from the swimming pool car park in Brinscall we will head up Well Lane and on to the moor. It is a circular route so you will end up where you started but you are able to leave the walk at any point if you wish to do a shorter (or longer!) route or would rather finish in Abbey Village. Our planned route is 4km or just under 3 miles so we have allowed 2.5 hours with stops at each of the ruins we pass on the way.

The walk is aimed at adults and the route includes some steep hills and uneven ground so please come suitably shod (walking boots) and dressed for the weather.

Only 20 places are available. £5pp. This includes refreshments (a brew and a slice of cake) when we stop for a break at Botany Bay farm ruin. You should receive an information email a few days before the event. If this hasn’t come through then please check your spam folder and then get in touch. Thank you 🙂
