Walk was a flat one


GLASSON Dock was the start point for Clitheroe Ramblers’ flattest walk of the year. On a dull and breezy day, 21 walk- ers followed the disused railway line east to Conder Green. They then turned north through Seafield Plantation and Water­ loo, reaching the side of Meldhorn Wood Golf Course. After passing Low Wood and Aldcliffe Marsh, the ramblers reached the outskirts of Lancaster. At the Millennium Bridge, the walkers


followed the footpath up the only climb of the day, to Lancaster Castle. The route then took the party through the t o p to reach the Lancaster Canal, following it south past Galgate, to Canal Junction. The ramblers passed Thurnham Mill before arriving back at Glasson Dock.
