Happy 11th September

Wishing all those who head to Wistanstow Village Hall later today, the best of walking days.

The current forecast suggests a cloudy start with possible sunny breaks in the cloud later on. Mild temperatures and a light breeze. You may find the breeze a bit more brisk on the higher parts of the route. And in this part of the world, a rain shower is always possible. Be prepared.

The green plate reads:

'Gate donated by the Marches Group of the Long Distance Walkers Association from funds raised by The Tour des Marches (Wistanstow) Challenge Walk  2018'

This is one of a number of improvements that have been made along the route over the years. Thank you to all those who have contributed in some way to make the walk a success.
