Again, I don't think I need to provide step by step directions as the path is fairly clear and the map will provide greater detail.

The walk starts in the car park behind Costa, in Maghull and the first part of the walk follows the steps we took two weeks ago.
Although the Scarisbrick Arms is next to the Leeds Liverpool Canal, we took a route across country, along lanes...

...and across fields and streams...

Among many other things, we saw...

• teasels (Dipsacus) still in flower 

• Cinnabar moth (Tyria jacobaeae) caterpillars on Ragwort (Jacobaea vulgaris)

• Fields of flowering potatoes (Solanum tuberosum)

• sheep

• Highland Cattle (Bos (primigenius) taurus) (with two calves)

• horses

• foals (Behind mum)

and 

• the Downholland Cross, Cross.

After lunch it was a short walk across the road, to catch the 300 bus back to Maghull.

Another enjoyable walk in the North West of England (Merseyside & Lancashire)
