Chatsworth Woods

5 of us today, Geoff's son Stephen joined us and we set off in the rain straight up the A6 to Beeley Moor corner where we parked up. We were up here a few weeks ago but thought we would explore a different part of the woods. The weather was very changeable with the sun breaking through then a bit of drizzle and that's how it continued. The track leads over the moor to the woods and then we had a bit of shelter. Slowly wound our way around and found a huge chimney that we assumed was the flu from the old green house. We just followed a wall back onto the track then to the Souter Stone that feeds the cascade. We had our breakfast next to the waterfall, o lovely sound of falling water. After breakfast we headed back to the car.

A nice walk just over 4 3/4 miles and found some interesting workings with that flu.
See you next week
