The Pendle Inn
Scroll down for photos and a description of the walk....
High Clouds
Ooops, I did it again! PH on Weds, another visit on Friday. Well, the forecast for the weekend does not make good reading and another family member also fancied a walk, so there was only one thing for it.
The Steps
We set off walking from the roadside at 19:50hrs and made our way up the steps. These walkers passed us on their way down.
