Sunday walkers – 02/01/22
15 of us went on a mystery walk this morning. Due to conditions the route had to be changed more than once. We ended up doing 4 miles from the station, along canal to Bells Lane and back. We were very lucky with the weather as it rained heavily about 30 minutes after we finished. We agreed we would all take a lateral flow test before walks in the future for the time being.
Great to be back – happy New Year to all who were unable to join us

Sunday walkers – 05th December
Hope you enjoyed the walk today, nearly 5 miles from Aughton station. We strolled along Long Lane, Blackmoss Lane , New Lane then over to Catherine’s Lane into Croppers Lane. At Poppy’s Lane we turned right through the farm down to Graveyard Lane. We stopped and saw the Friends Burial Ground (Quakers -1665) then walked through Graveyard farm following the footpath over a small bridge up to the Moor Hall estate. Then left onto Prescot Road, right at the next footpath which brought us back to Town Green station. Hope to see you all soon- Brian
Sunday walkers – local
We had to postpone our walk in West Kirby due to the weather forecast.
Even though it forecast snow 20 of us completed just under 5 miles taking in the canal, Cheshire lines and local fields.
We arrived at Bernie’s just as the snow was getting heavier.
It was great to finish the walk with a cooked breakfast in good company.
We are walking in Aughton next week and getting the 9.50 Ormskirk train . I will post full details later in the week. John and I are hoping to go to Bernie’s at 9 next Sunday and have breakfast before we get the train. Anyone can join us 🙂
Sunday walkers – Hall Road Nov 21
On a morning that was remarkably bright and sunny for the time of the year, 21 members decamped at Hall Road station where they were joined by 4 other members and Keith – a guest labradoodle guide possessing extensive knowledge of the intended route of the day’s walk.
After completing the usual preliminaries, the group set off for the first port of call at the Key Park. Here Frank and David provided background information as to how it was that this somewhat unique resource came into being for the benefit of the local residents, and how its facilities were safeguarded from excessive use.
Sunday walkers – Rimrose
25 walkers got the train to Seaforth and Litherland and then took part in a walk to Rimrose Valley . Again we were lucky with the weather . Bill made the walk really interesting sharing the history of the park . We stopped at 11am. along the canal to observe a 2 minute silence . Once we arrived at Waterloo station we split up to find places to eat . Thanks again Bill . Next week Cheryl and Frank are leading a walk from Hall Road details to follow later in the week.
Sunday walkers – Moreton
20 walkers made their way to Moreton where we walked down to the front and stopped to have a coffee, tea and bacon baps at the little cafe. The wind was very strong on the front so we decided to have it behind us and walk to New Brighton instead Hoylake .
The views were spectacular along the way with waves high in places . We were treated to seeing wind surfers and swimmers braving the elements . The walk was 5 miles although with the help of the wind it felt shorter.
Some of us then went to the Sea Horse and had either Sunday roast or fish and chips. Feedback showed good value money .
Next week it’s the Rimrose Valley and will get 9.19 train from Maghull to Seaforth.
Sunday Strollers – SP Guided Walk
Thirty one walkers assembled at St Michael’s Station for our guided walk round Sefton Park. Before we reached the park, David Scott gave us a potted history of the development of St Michael’s Hamlet and the construction of its “cast iron” Church. We took a slight detour Continue reading
