We are the Pocklington Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
The walk starts at Sir Tatton Sykes's Monument, Sledmere. York Road (a chalk track) descending into Garton Bottom, Cottam Well Dale, Phillip's Slack. A short steep ascent in Philip's Slack brings the party onto a farm access road to Cottam Grange, continuing on a field path towards Cottam House. The route continues across Cottam Airfield and along field paths to Cottam Warren Farm. We then descend into Garton Bottom once again along a private track (I have permission from the owner). We walk along this quiet country lane to the junction with York Road ascending the walk finishes back at Sledmere Monument.
A number of historical points will be mentioned on the walk
Sir Tatton Sykes's Monument. Hard standing available for car parking, space limited so car sharing and thoughtful parking encouraged.
