Something I’ll be brooding on in next couple of weeks.
Lee,
Notice you’re thinking of doing some walks based on a train to Leeds, then bus...
If you ever fancy a really easy walk in that area...either because conditions underfoot atrocious in fields or whatever...worth thinking about just leaving train station, going under the Dark Arches (adjacent to station itself) onto Leeds/ Liverpool canal...and just walking out on canal until you get tired/ fed up, then get a bus back.
Perhaps surprisingly for a canal walk once a couple of miles out from city centre you get some outstanding sweeping views...also easy to include a visit to the Armoury.
