- ROSSENDALE RAMBLERS

IN a complete change from the previous week, our walks this week were blessed with brilliant sunny weather.

On Wednesday, December 15, 16 ramblers enjoyed a nine-mile rural ramble near the now closed Camelot theme park.

Apart from mud, the main feature of this walk was four different woods: Big Wood, Little Wood, a wood with no name, and Dam Wood.

Then on Saturday, December 18, 17 walkers and two dogs had a lovely two-hour pub walk from Stackstead­s, including an impressive sculpture – Ferroterra­saurus – in Lee Quarry.

After the walk, 10 of the group tucked into an excellent lunch at the Rose ‘N’ Bowl, home of the World Gravy Wrestling Championsh­ips! We have no walks over the festive period, but we are out again on Wednesday, January 5, and Sunday,

January 9, for 10 and 6 miles respective­ly.

Full details will be given in our next bulletin.

These walks are free, but after three walks with us we ask you to join The Ramblers, at a cost of only £3.05 per month.
