Brief Description We start with about 10 minutes road walking to get to the track that leads to Lead Mines Clough, then to the open moor, initially alongside Limestone Brook before taking a faint path across the moor to Round Loaf, a Neolithic round barrow. This section of the walk will be squelchy but not impassable. We then drop down to cross Dean Black Brook and reach the wide, stony track from Great Hill to White Coppice, the likely lunch stop. We then follow the track to the road at the northern end of Anglezarke Reservoir and take the Woodland Trail back to the car park. No stiles, ascent is mostly gradual.
