Todays walk in detail

09/08/2026

Townend Common, Ewden Village, Broom Head Bridge, Salter Hills Hollin Busk, Bolsterstone Royd.

23 people including one potential member started from the scenic car park at Townend Common near Bolsterstone and followed a route mainly down hill to Ewden village then walked along the edge of Broomhead reservoir. We the climbed the hardest hill of the walk to Heads Lane the route then levelled off  to The Height, like the weather  the views were beautiful and we proceeded down hill to have lunch overlooking Langley Brook. The way back was overlooking Stocksbridge Edge to Hollin Busk where another water stop was taken. The next village was Bolsterstone on our way to Cote House where we turned left to Stocksbridge Golf course and a short walk to the car park. Thank you to all who took part in the walk and our new member who enjoyed it also. Refreshments were taken at the King and Miller at Deepcar.
