Footpath leaving Wood End Road The gate by which the footpath leaves the road is clear enough, but it is not clear where you go after that. I was following a rudimentary trail which turned out to be quite boggy in places. The road ahead is signed as private though there should still be a public footpath using it.

Reclaimed industrial land A bridlepath of crushed coal debris across what old OS maps fail to name apart from an engine house. It was served by a branch railway and perhaps was part of a gas production or electricity generation plant?
