The last day before Britain ‘locked down’ I came out to the top of the Snake Pass. My first objective was the car park a bit down the hill back towards Sheffield. From here, to avoid walking on the road I walked a very short way north on the Pennine Way then right down the western extremity of Doctor’s Gate. From the car park I followed the path to the south side of the road till it turned right into the woods of Lady Clough. The road turns right here to so it is never far away though in the woods it is easier to forget how near it is. I planned to head down here then take a right and head into Ashop Moor. You can do this on a high Land Rover track or a lower path. I took the high track. Eventually they converge where you walk a little downhill from fading track to path. It is a lovely walk up the valley to its head at the gap between Mill Hill and the main bulk of Kinder. Then Pennine Way back to car. Driving back I saw the first sign, just past the Ladybower Inn. “The countryside is closed. Go home.” I did.
