Overview

Starting from Delph Lane in Charnock Richard we follow paths and roads through the village to emerge onto the A49 after the golf course. Crossing to Brook Lane we then follow paths to Old Hall then onto Back Lane, crossing the motorway before reaching the River Yarrow. We follow the riverside path to Pincock then follow German Lane to the railway footbridge leading to Roscoe House on Delph Lane. Finally we then return along the path of Delph Lane back to Charnock Richard.
