Full description: 

After a successful midweek walk recently, there was a call for more for those who are available, so let's see...

This is a 9.5 mile walk from Bamford to Bradwell and Brough, finishing at Hope station. From Bamford, we'll walk a short way along the Derwent, before heading up onto Offerton and Shatton Moors, with an opportunity to bag an Ethel with yet another B - "Burton Bole". We'll then descend into Bradwell, where we can enjoy their 4 well dressings, before stopping by the remains of a Roman fort at Brough. We'll finish at Hope station, with an opportunity for food and/or drink at the Travellers Rest before the return train.

Public transport or car sharing options: 

The train from Sheffield leaves at 10:14. There are hourly trains back from Hope at 15:38, 16:38, etc.
