Once we are all gathered together we start the walk by going along School Lane and turning into Pendlebury lane. We will be heading downhill to the River Douglas where we will follow the river to Leyland Mill Brow. From here a short climb is needed to reach the main road.
A quick walk along the road takes us to the path going through Bottling Woods and downhill to the old railway track. We now follow the path towards the canal locks and lunch.
After lunch we walk the towpath alongside the locks to reach the canal which leads us back to Haigh Hall Park.
Finally we will walk through the grounds of the hall back to the cars.
Refreshments can be had at the hall should one like to partake.
