Details of our Next Walk
Sunday Oct 2nd - Leader Monica Hough
We then go via the church, where we can stop for lunch (if there isn't a service on). Afterwards we take more field tracks leading to Manor Farm, Pexall Lane, Cockmoss Lane and back to the start point at Eaton.
Meet at Macclesfield Railway Station at 10:00am. We will share cars as necessary.
NOTE The railway station car park is not available this Sunday so please use the car park across the road by the Old Millstone Pub or one of the other public car parks dotted around the area, there is no charge on a Sunday. We will still meet at the Station car park or just across the road in front of the Queens Hotel.
If any one wishes to go straight to the start point please send the Club an email or contact the Walk Leader Monica Hough

and make yourself known!
You can be sure of a warm welcome.
We are a small friendly walking club from Macclesfield. There are walks usually on alternate Sundays throughout the year and we also arrange occasional walking weekends away staying in hotels or bed & breakfast accommodation.
Walks are graded from short and easy for the less fit or beginner through to more strenuous hill walks.
Prospective members are welcome to join us on two walks to get to know us before paying the £8 annual fee.

Walk Notes
The Club welcomes anyone who enjoys walking, but is not able to provide specialist care or supervision. A young person under 18 must be accompanied on the walk by a parent or other adult with parental responsibility. A vulnerable adult must be accompanied on the walk by a carer. Dogs may accompany walkers but must be kept on a leash.
Clothing and footwear appropiate to the conditions should be worn, also bring a drink and picnic lunch unless otherwise stated.
The Club is not responsible for any walker's actions, or for any loss of, or damage to, property.
Programmes and other information are available from the Chairperson.
The meeting place for walks is usually Macclesfield Railway Station car park, where members (if they wish to do so) can car share for onward travel to the start point. Please check walk details for any specific meeting information for each walk. Some walkers may live closer to the start point and may wish to go direct to the start, in which case they should inform the walk leader.
