Forecast – as at Tuesday morning: cold with probable rain.
Hazards – trip-hazards, rocks and tree roots but we avoid the stepping stones. Due to a collapsed bit of the riverside track we need to walk on the road for 200metres in the cycle lane.
Lunch: three merry lads on Redmires Rd, 1.6 miles from the parking, 4 minute drive.
No need to pre-book food but it would be good to know numbers. The main menu looks a bit pricey but they have a January lunchtime menu with ten (smaller but adequate) mains at £10.
