Today we had fifty-five walkers - a Cuerden record!  Thirty-four for the main walk and twenty-one for the short walk

It was a clear, dry and pleasant morning for our walk

James led the main group with Frankie back marker.

John B led the Elite group with Margaret W back marker and Colin C mid marker.  

Both groups set off down the side of the Visitors Centre into the Pinetum but James turned down Cardiac Hill and John went up to the Viewing platform
