Overview

8 mile circular walk from Timbersbrook Car Park.

The walk starts with a stiff climb up to Bosley Cloud, from the top we will have glorious views of Cheshire. From Bosley Cloud we follow the Ridge eastward before dropping down to Raven's Clough. The route then follows a former Railway track to the village of Rushton Spencer. The road westward takes us out of the village, after a climb along the road we join a field track to the hamlet of Woodhouse Green.  A walk along a road takes us to the Bridestones (Neolithic burial Chamber), we then return by a field path to Timbersbrook.
