Todays walk in detail

Trans Pennine Trail

Thanks to all 22 who turned up for one of my favourite short walks. The forecast wasn't good and it was raining when we set off. Starting from Cote Green car park we passed through Thurgoland tunnel on the TPT then dropped down to the river Don by which time the rain had stopped. Then on past the 'fish pass' and the old mill near the weir where we had our coffee/tea break. After crossing the river we made our way up through the woods to the delightful Ivy Millennium Green Communal Garden in Green Moor village. After a brief stop, we crossed the road up and over the village green, climbing through Delph quarry. We emerged on the top field with views of Stocksbridge and the surrounding area. It was quite breezy up there as the rain came down once again. Then down through the woods, over the stepping stone bridge and back to the car park just in time to miss the next heavy shower. Thanks to Peter for backmarking. A good time was had by all.
