Click here to eThere is roadside parking on Langsett Road North south of Bridge Hill. After a bit of a fale dstart I crossed the bridge and headed along the rverside path through Beeley Woods,. It is quite busy here. This is where Oughtibridge goes jogging and walks its dogs. After about a mile the path goes down to skirt the graffiti-covered works and Rocher Bridge. The bridge here is dangerous and closed to all traffic. But I had already crossed it when I met the notice telling me this. From here it is a short steep climb to the main road, right a bit and then steps lead up to a path over fields to Stockarth Lane. I followed this very quiet road – it changes its name to Mowson Lane after a bit – uphill top the edge of Worrall where another path off to the left skirts the end of a park leading to Worral Road. This took me into the village. Right down Haggstone Road then left into Towngate Road and between two churches. The road becomes a path across fields then quite steeply downhill to another church and a cemetery. Here I followed Burton Lane bac towards Oughtibridge but went off left on a footpath through the ground of a farmhouse and cross more fields to descend to Wheel Lane. Entering the last field there were signs warning me there was a bull in it and that cow with calves can be aggressive. But tis cold January day there was no sign of bovine peril. Now I followed Wheel Lane back to my start with a short detour through Sensicall Park.
