Cartledge and Barlow Woodseats (31st July 2025)
Twenty two walkers met at the bottom of Millthorpe Lane ready for a four mile walk led by Graham. The first part of the walk took us back up Millthorpe Lane but as the road straightened we took one of those unusual right of ways that passes directly through someone’s garden. Luckily they weren’t enjoying…

Moss Valley Woodlands (17th July 2025)
Eighteen walkers met in the lower car park at Coal Aston Village Hall ready for a walk in the Moss Valley Woodlands. Pete, the walk leader, has done this walk a few times so the outward route through Nor Wood, Long Wood and Hazelbarrow farm was very familiar to most. The return leg via Newfield…

Edensor and Calton Lees (10th July 2025)
With temperatures touching 26 degrees, the slightest of breezes was most welcome as twelve walkers gathered outside St Peter’s church in Edensor.

Moss Valley Circular (19th June 2025)
Due to the high temperatures during the day, our leader Graham decided to do a slightly shorter route than intended for tonight’s walk. Eleven walkers set off from the bottom car park at Coal Aston Village Hall on a 3 1/2 mile stroll around the Moss Valley. There was a welcome breeze as we crossed…

The Three Golf Courses Walk (14th June 2025)

The weather forecast predicted that we might get showers or even thunderstorms but neither of these materialised. The first golf course was Dore and Totley which we navigated via a sheltered path running down the side…
