Thank you everyone who came to join us for a gentle walk through Styal Northern Woods, along the River Bollin and visiting Quary Bank Mill and Styal Village. It was lovely both to meet up with old friends and to welcome several new faces. We hope to see you all again very soon.

And thank you all for not letting the railway workers spoil our lovely day!
