We will set off promptly. Please try to arrive 10mins early so you are ready to go. Please do not be offended if we do not wait whilst you get yourself sorted. We do a warm up close by so please do catch up.

Cancellation Policy

Cancellations more than 24hrs before a walk can be made on the Exercise Anywhere booking system. Cancellations made less than 24hrs before a walk will not be refunded and cannot be made on the system - please contact Ian either by phone or text to cancel.

Location Notes:

Free parking. We'll meet at the car park opposite the Heritage Centre. If the car park is locked (which randomly happens), there is a layby for 4/5 cars just below the Heritage Centre, or parking at the bottom of the hill. There are several roads leading to Park Bridge, but many of them are not well maintained! The best route, despite being cobbles, is along Waggon Rd which can be reached from Bardsley along Park Bridge Rd
