Fred, sue and anyone else:

The walk as described below will take place Saturday 18th September - and with a forecast of fine weather.

Hope to see some of you at 10.14 on the 83a bus to Crimicar Lane, from Hunters Bar Neill Road bus stop outside Hopper coffee shop.

Ten bus services go through Hunters Bar. Do you know where they all go right to their termini?

There are interesting and scenic walks to be had from all of them - even from the 10/10a which is actually a circular route close to the city centre, as well as walks from the edge of Sheffield using the Derbyshire services.

So I will be organising walks from each bus service terminus or interesting stops over the next few months, which you are invited to join me on.

The first walk, Saturday 18th September, with Ollie the dog, will be for the 83a from Crimicar Lane near Lodge Moor, from where we will follow Rivelin Crags to Wyming Brook, on to Redmires reservoirs and and then back along the Redmires Conduit. On the walk we will pass the memorial bench to Nigel Bruce Thompson who died in the World Trade Centre 9/11.

Total length 4.25 miles. Start from Hunters Bar Neill Road bus stop at 10.14am on Saturday 18th September. We will stop at Redmires reservoirs for packed lunch. We should be back before 3pm. Note stout footwear required as some parts of Rivelin Crags are, well, a bit craggy.
