The kids have gone back to their mums after a week with me, so I'm planning some longer walks - I've been meaning to investigate some of the public rights of way in my area, and yesterday went on a lengthy walk along some of them - I followed the green dotted line you can see above Nooklands, then along Savick Brook, crossing Preston Golf Club on the top right of the map:
This lush overgrown (and clearly barely used) path is the Nooklands PROW - just running along between the back gardens of two sets of houses.
Savick Brook:
A bit further down the brook, despite being deep in the middle of suburban Preston, there's a dairy farm.
The deserted golf course from the 17th hole (it was lovely here - probably less so with golfers about tho)
I checked my OS app and decided to carry on walking north, to arbitrarily finish at the well marked on the top right of this map:
(another suburban farm)
Crossing the motorway - an instructive contrast (in some ways an explanation for) to pictures shared elsewhere of busy city parks - this is the main motorway into and out of the Lake District this bank holiday weekend.
More of a tiny swamp than a well tbh...
I'm just planning today's walk now, and will be heading out shortly...
