Meet at Barlow Institute Car Park next to Cricket Club, Edgworth GR742166 (Sat Nav BL7 0AP), ready for the usual start time of 10.30am.
We make our way to the dam at Wayho Reservoir and cross to the far side where we have a steady climb through woodland to reach Bartonridge Barn car park. From here we walk through fields to where we join the path towards Clough House Farm, we are now on Witton Weavers Way with beautiful views across the valley of Bradshaw Brook, proceeding to Turton Tower. We then continue to Jumbles Reservoir, before turning right to follow a path along the reservoir which joins another path at the top leading onto Rotary Way where we continue to complete our walk round this beautiful reservoir. We then proceed towards Turton Bottoms to join Witton Weavers Ways once again through fields and footpaths winding our way back to Edgworth.
