Day 7 - 30th MarchA morning walk through the woods today, with my eldest son and Tess. First up through Yewbarrow Woods to the viewpoint, then eastwards to a minor road, passing a lime kiln. Entering Eggerslack Woods, we followed paths northwards, without too much height gain or loss, to a spring in the limestone, somewhat depleted after the recent dry spell - still plenty for Tess, though. We backtracked towards Grange on a lower path, passing masses of Ramsons (wild garlic) - took a few leaves for culinary purposes. Down to Grange, past the duck pond and along the Prom before returning home. A few people about on the Prom, 3 wearing face masks. 4 miles the total for today.
