Gathering by the roadside in Coaley
With Sally as Editor/Processor what can I say?
Coaley Church
Guess what they have been doing in the village school
The first of many stiles
Before we head off through a field of sheep
Cam Peak in front of us
More soggy fields
A stream cutting a deep path through this field
And the grotesque remains of a tree
Queuing for another stile
Just what you expect to find at a sewage works
On to Halmore Mill
Ramblers appearing out of the hedge
Our next point of interest is an electricity sub station
Then a bridge over a stream next to a disused railway bridge
The stream in full spate thanks to recent rain
Here we stop for coffee
Before continuing on our way
Quite a tricky stile
A slight uphill climb
Giving us views over to May Hill
Mike leading the way through a kissing gate
Views over to Coaley Church - our destination
Yet another muddy gateway
Followed by another stile
Picking our way round more mud
Don't think that machine will be going far
Climbing gently uphill
Look what Brian has found
Just needs one of the group's more sporting members to show us how it is done
A recently replaced stile - but not walker friendly
Nearly back - there is the Church
Today's snowdrops
