Friday Over Kellet |

In
spite of off-putting weather reports, November's public transport walk
took place on a fine day starting beneath beautiful blue skies. After
travelling by bus from Lancaster, we set off up the fields from Over
Kellet with lovely views across the area. Negotiating our way along logs
which had been provided as a route over mud proved to be not too
difficult. We then followed a semi-circular route past the large
quarry, firstly on a woodland path past trees with colourful autumn
leaves down to the roadside and then along a wide grassy track to reach
a green lane. After descending to Nether Kellet, we enjoyed a welcome
break for tea/coffee and cakes in the church hall. Continuing through
the village and over the motorway bridge, our walk then took us up the
bridleway down across fields and through woodland to the canal
towpath. This we followed through Bolton le Sands to the swing bridge.
After crossing the main road, we followed a field path which took us
over ditches and over the railway to the shore. The last section of the
route was along the coastal path, finishing at Bare.
