A circular walk from Chinley Station. We will climb up Eccles Pike, pass through Whaley Bridge and return to Chinley Station, via Chinley House.
We catch the 9:14 Hope Valley service from Sheffield Station, arriving in Chinley at approximately 10.00. There is plenty On-street car parking near Chinley Station. We walk down through the village until we reach Eccles Pike. This is quite a steep climb but short. (The climb can be avoided by walking along Eccles Road.) We then descend to Tunstead Milton and walk along by Coombs Reservoir. We make our way over to Meveril Farm and Cadster Farm to arrive at Whaley Bridge. ( This is a break off point as there are buses from Whaley Bridge to Chinley Station). We walk along the canal to Waterside, then make our way past Ancoats and Chinley House to the station.
