This walk takes in the Pendle circular route passing through woodlands, alongside streams and over fields. First we ascend Spence Moor, and circle round passing over Black Hill to reach the trig point at Pendle Hill. Easy, slighlty steep descent back to Barley with sweeping views of the surrounding area.
Cafe in car park at end. Don't forget your witches brew.
Start: 1030am Barley Green car park (cost £1), GR SD823403. Don't forget that the clocks go back on Saturday night, so you get an extra hour in bed. No excuses for being late!
