Good walk though, I'll put it on my "to do list". Looks like the've spent some money and time on the Slitt works since I was there.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03631117697022610772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-89932974689590019822011-03-01T09:43:34.536+00:002011-03-01T09:43:34.536+00:00The leadmining companies made a real mess of many ...The leadmining companies made a real mess of many places in the Pennines. Not pretty at all - but interesting... Slitt Wood is quite beatiful, though - heaving with wild flowers...<br />Llona - There's also some landowners who say "you're welcome to walk here" and supply stiles etc.. but there's nothing on maps. You just have to know about them. Some permissive paths appear on very new maps but many don't and if you come across one, you often have no idea where it goes.<br />Its a bugger...!Mike Knipehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12792636586674245725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-53364232780293340742011-03-01T09:29:34.485+00:002011-03-01T09:29:34.485+00:00These permissive paths confuse me because a lot of...These permissive paths confuse me because a lot of them are not on the map. I get completely flumoxed if there are too many paths to choose from, I just want to follow the proper public footpaths and not get lost. Spose I ought to learn how to use a compass properly.Meanqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02705837426373680532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-10503415017413507302011-03-01T08:25:40.885+00:002011-03-01T08:25:40.885+00:00Hi Mike,

Not long ago these places would have been talked of as a blot on the landscape and now they are being "dun up" at great expense. I for one am pleased cos i like industrial archeology and if you find a bit of something nice. Great.<br />I had a look at that website, you know the one!AlanRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180571503542781921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-64414423526484296182011-03-01T00:21:45.210+00:002011-03-01T00:21:45.210+00:00I went around by Weeds, picking up the emanations ...I went around by Weeds, picking up the emanations from the back end of superdawg..But I dare say I'll be up there again, Charlie - there's a DVCRS route I need to work out, so I'll be haunting Westgate quite a bit.Mike Knipehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12792636586674245725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-39478805178798961542011-03-01T00:08:50.784+00:002011-03-01T00:08:50.784+00:00Hi Mike you should have knocked on my door for a c...Hi Mike you should have knocked on my door for a cuppa.charlie allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17876683202375807740noreply@blogger.com
