D Walk - Mellor
2026-04-16 10:00
Walk to start from Knowle Road. Mellor. SK6 5PL

Off Longhurst Lane.

Hi everyone.

Due to the daily rising cost of fuel, I have changed my planned walk to a local area.

This is a 5.5 moderate walk around Mellor with mainly decent footpaths, some Lane walking, a couple of tricky stiles and maybe mud .

Directions

From Brabyns Park carpark turn left , then right at the t. lights into Town Street.

Continue ahead into Longhurst Lane for 0.8 miles, then left into Knowle Road signed Mellor Primary School.

Parking along the roadside, not in the school carpark as it is term time.

Hope to see you there, weather looks ok.

C Walk - Millers Dale (Change from programme)
2026-04-19 09:45
Distance is just over 7.5 miles and moderate. Car park is £6.60 for the day so consider car sharing. Arrive at 9:45 for 10:00 start. According to Google maps, the distance from Marple to Millers Dale Car Park is about 22 miles, 45 minutes (or less if no traffic problems!).

Walk starts at Millers Dale Station Car Park and along the Monsal Trail towards Chee Dale through three tunnels. At Chee Dale, there’s a climb up a zig-zag track along the Pennine Bridleway towards Tunstead. Before reaching Tunstead, we turn right towards Wormhill and then continue to Monk’s Dale. Instead of walking down Monk’s Dale, which is horrible, we take the road to climb up out of Monk’s Dale to Monksdale House and take the track to join the Limestone Way to Millers Dale. Then join the Monsal Trail to return to the start.

Directions

Do not put the SK17 8SN post code in as this will take you to Millers Dale and not the station!

So from Marple go towards Buxton on the A6 and either go via Buxton or turn left at the traffic lights in Dove Holes to go via Peak Dale, Haregatewall and Wormhill to Millers Dale Station Car Park. If you don’t fancy the cross country route, then go into Buxton and continue on the A6 towards Bakewell. After a couple of miles, take the left-hand turn (B6049) towards Millers Dale and at the bottom of the hill, turn left (Sign posted Wormhill and Monsal Train Car Park). The road climbs up the hill, go under two arched railway bridges and then turn left into the car park.

If you do fancy the cross country route, then it’s left in Dove Holes onto Dale Road. Turn left at the junction with Smalldale Road and then turn immediately right, signposted Wormhill/Millers Dale. Continue on this road through Wormhill and when the road descends after a sharp right-hand bend, turn right before the arched railway bridge into the car park.

B Walk - Sheldon
2026-04-23 10:00
The walk starts at 10.0 at the car park in Chapel Street, Monyash. On entering the village, turn left and you are in Chapel Street. The small car park is on the left, not far down. There is no set charge but there is an honesty box.

We go from Monyash to Sheldon, then down via the Magpie Mine to Over Haddon, and back to Monyash by way of the Lathkill and Cales Dale. Although some of these places featured in Tony’s walk two weeks ago, there is very little overlap between the two walks.

THE WALK

The walk itself is a delightful and interesting walk with great views over the Peak District throughout plus a landscape including numerous examples of grass covered hillocks and hollows that are the surface remains of lead veins and mines, the hamlet of Old Dam .and Eldon Hole once thought to be the entrance to Hell. There are a mixture of fields ,footpaths, tracks and quiet lanes (usually!!). Fingers crossed for the weather which at the time of writing was dry!DISTANCE

C Walk - Romiley
2026-05-07 10:00
The walk is local. Werneth low area, a canal walk through Woodley tunnel (176 yards). Then down and round through the Tame valley following the river. Up through Apethorne lane. A steepish walk up to Werneth low (not right to the top). About 7.5 ish miles.

A few stiles and the usual uneven ground but mostly good going. One busy strech of road about 500 yards, and about a mile or so of back roads.

Please note there are some steep steps down to the canal towards the tunnel. For those who don’t fancy the tunnel or the steps there is an alternative route, which is a short walk through the estate and we can meet up the other side of the tunnel. A torch is not needed but could be very useful.

Meet at the top of Guywood lane Romiley as it joins Hill Top lane. It is all on road parking. There is more parking as Guywood meets High Meadows slightly lower down. Post code SK6 4AW. Guywood land is next to Romiley station. 10am for 10.15 start.
