Short and gentle walks replace the impractical evening outings


THE Clitheroe group of the Ramblers Association is trying short, gentle after­ noon walks on Wednes­ days, as evening outings have become impractical. These run on alternate


weeks to the scheduled Tuesday walks and the sec­ ond of these started from Chatburn. After negotiating the


hazards of the A59, the group walked up White- croft to cross the limestone ridge between Worsaw and Warren Hills. ,

"Worsaw, Warren, Ridge and Crow - Salthill and Bellman all in a row", was evoked, with hopes that the remaining four will never go the way of Salthill and Bellman. On the Worston side of


the hills the group descend­ ed by way of Worston End House, the film setting for Whistle down the Wind, to Downham. After an ice cream stop, the 12 walkers climbed over the ridge of Downham Green to Rim- mgton Lane,vNew Field Wood and Swanside, paus­
