A cloudy day!!
We started at Timbersbrook car park. As we walked to the right out of the car park there was a very nice looking house, perhaps it had only recently been done up as the garden was very open.
Macclesfield Canal
There was a long stretch on the canal.
Just before we left the canal we sat on a walk-way that was to avoid a boggy part of the canal. As we sat there a girl who was running ran though the wet because she couldn't use the walkway as we were in the way. So she had wet trainers!
The Cloud (height 343 metres)
A bit of a steep walk with scrambling near the top. We went to the trig point and there were views all around. The information board pointed out the various directions, we could see across the Cheshire Plain to Helsby Hill and Beeston Castle.
Afternoon tea, i.e. scone and cream with tea in Marton.
