3.054 mile pushchair friendly walk.

The walk this weekend was a revisit to Clockface and Sutton Manor. In part, because we had company.
Emily was staying with Grandma and Granddad so pushchair friendly paths were very important.

Look Granddad...

If you have not been here before, this is an ideal time of the year to visit. The wild-flowers  and a few cultivated ones that have been brought in with top-soil for tree planting, are stunning. Take a look.
The Orchids in particular...

Orchids

Wildflowers grow in abundance on this former colliery site with the woodlands and meadows displaying colourful species such as purple loosestrife, early marsh / spotted orchid and ragged robin. There’s a rich variety of flora and fauna and the deciduous woodland includes wild cherry (ripe in the next 2 weeks or so), oak, ash and silver birch.

Flowers, poems, works of art, iron works and "The Dream"

The images below provide a taste of some of the artwork you will see...

There is also an audio trail which, those who want to use it, can be accessed via QR codes posted on the routes.
The App is also available at http://digital.dreamsthelens.info/ 
Chris and Iplan to revisit soon (if only for the cherries)
