Overview

This is a circular Chase walk skirting in and around Brocton. It is mostly gentle walking with some stony parts which may be skiddy.  There was not much mud at the time of the recce, but obviously it depends on the weather between now and the walk date. There are a couple of road crossings, no stiles.

Chase Vista car park, Chase Road, Brocton. BEWARE - there are a couple of nasty pot-holes near to the turning for the car park. Chase Road Brocton is the very narrow, sharp turning off the green in the very centre of Brocton. Proceed past the nursery on your left; the car park is on your right. If you are approaching from the opposite direction, proceed along Brocton Road, past Chase Road Corner car park, the Glacial Boulder, and the turning for Freda's Grave. The car park is on your left shortly after the Freda's Grave turning. If you are unfamiliar with the area, this might be good opportunity to try what3words.
