Yesterday Allotment Julie and I drove to Wetton in the Peak District, originally we were meeting Rich and Donna from the Walking Forum but due to health issues had to pull out and so I had to come up with a route. I choose to return to Wetton where I started my hill walking some 30 years ago.
Have to admit my memories of Wetton were totally different, I guess time plays tricks.
I got the map out and decided to follow the country road down to Wetton Mill, then followed the Manifold Way, looking up at Thor's Cave. When we met the road we took it back into Wetton up a very steep incline. Still suffering with a chest infection I found the climb very hard.
Once back at Wetton we decided to head for Alstonfield for a spot of lunch but ended up stopping in Mildale where we had home cooked meals. I had Steak & Ale Casserole.
Here are a few pics...
Here is me and Lady wrapped up well.
