PeteHi All,
Details as follows:-
Park at the Fox House roadside parking GR:-
268803 or at the Longshaw National Trust
car park at GR:- 267801.
Meet at the bus stop shelter adjacent the pub.
Please note because of the large number of us
walking (upwards of 30) we will split into 3
groups to stagger the arrival time at the pub.
Please be at the bus shelter for a start time of 10.45
First group will be led by Gordon, the second group off
at 11am led by Colin. Third group off at 11.15 led by
myself.
The route will go north east adjacent to the A6187
for 200 metres before turning north west accross to
the Burbage Valley. We then go south to our coffee stop
at the stone hut GR:- 258799. From here it’s through
the Longshaw estate to the Grouse. Return is back via the estate to the parking.
Distances – out 4 miles – back 2 miles.
The current weather forecast is light rain, 8 degrees
with a 14mph wind.
Can I ask that you pay for your meal/meals when you
enter the bar and give your name/names to the bar staff to enable them to cross you off the food list.
As usual festive clothing can be worn. I might even
turn up in a Father Christmas outfit.
Look forward to seeing you all on the day.
PeteBrief Walk Report
Three groups set of at staggered intervals from the Fox House. All met up at the stone building at the top of Padley Gorge where shots of Ginger Frog (Brandy & Ginger Wine) were consumed.
29 sat down for lunch at the Grouse. Excellent food as always.
Some departed back via cars, others braved the heavy rain.
Thanks to all for turning out for another very social occasion and thanks also to the other walk leaders Gordon & Colin.
Merry Christmas to all and best wishes for an excellent 2026.
