Whilst the weather is more favourable in summer and there are longer days, the tree canopy can affect the accuracy of the grid references. Whilst numerous readings were taken, if you consider a better grid reference is needed please let us know.
An excellent pdf leaflet can be downloaded explaining the route http://www.visitlancashire.com/things-to-do/walking-routes/middle-distance-walks with input by our very own belbincolne no less!
Continue your walk around the waters edge.
