Two walks took place today…a 12 mile canal, country and coast walk and a 5 mile walk from Rufford. The 12 milers set off from the Punch Bowl at Sefton Village, crossed Jubilee Wood, walked across the new Broom’s Cross road towards Thornton and joined the canal. Following this for a couple of miles we then crossed Rimrose Valley where we were thrilled to spot a beautiful Jay flying through the undergrowth. From here we walked to Waterloo and had a very welcome coffee at Waterloo place.  Continue reading

Our next walk is 15th October .  We will be meeting at Maghull Station at 10.50.  We had hoped to get the train to West Kirby, however, there are engineering works that day so we will have to make the best of what is on our door step this month and do  West Kirby next month. If you have a bus pass remember to bring it with you. We may get the local bus to Lydiate and walk around that area.  You will need to wear walking shoes at this time of the year.
