Crossing Blackpool Rd we walk down a country lane for around half a mile before taking a footpath across the fields and over the railway footbridge to Treales village. Here we pass the first windmill, surrounded by a beautiful woodland garden.
Carrying on through the village, we leave the road to take a wide stony track to Mowbreck Hall . Here we change direction and go south towards Kirkham via a path by a small stream. Crossing two fields we go under the railway bridge to the edge of Kirkham. We pass through Remembrance Way to reach Dowbridge and the second windmlll. We stay on the road footpath to the car park.
If the weather is wet we can walk along lanes instead of going through fields.
