After a steep ascent out of Bonsall village we head towards Ible. Before we get to Ible head north towards Winster, turning south-eastwards before we reach Winster. Lunch will be on one of grassy spoil heaps belonging to the abandoned Beans & Bacon mine before returning to Bonsall via the Horse Dale. We cross a lot of fields in the course of the walk. Boundary walls are negotiated by a mixture of wicket gates, squeeze points and stiles.
There may be quite a lot of mud if it has been raining in the days leading up to the walk. Toilets are available in Bonsall village. At the end of the walk participants may seek refreshments in the Fountain Cafe. There are likely to be a herd of cows encountered on the walk. They should be sufficient space to keep away from them.
