Roaches and Lud's Church

Saturday 14 July 8.25 miles (+ walking from and to car)
Tracey, Hilary, Carol, Jane

Excellent walk, lovely weather! - we have been so lucky with the weather again!

Started with the exposed heights of the Roaches. There were lots of cars and people were already climbing. We walked along the ridge there were plenty of people around on this first stretch, but we saw fewer as we dropped into the valley.

Managed to find some rocks to sit on in the sheltered valley with trees around. Had lunch.

Lud's Church is a chasm, so it is enclosed. It is interesting to walk somewhere with such different aspects - the top of the Roaches and the bottom of a chasm!

Black water comes off the hills - there must be lots of peat in it.

It was a little wet in places on the way back.

Tea at the Farmhouse + cake of course.
