Wouldn't mind knowing myself as that's only about half an hour away for me.
Looking at the OS map for the area, I can't see anything. Loads of footpaths, bridles ways, and national trails. The nearest I can see that might be worth a look is the road that goes alongside Roddlesworth reservoir. MapPaul </Slugsie>
Immortal.so far!

OK, trouble is, I've missplaced my compass so I can't give you the OS grid ref's! Basicly, you turn left at the 298 on the map and follow it down into the forrest. You then go through a little stream and turn left immediately over the bridge, follow the 'road' past some buildings and that's it!
If you fancy a trip during the week (during the day only), we can meet up. It isn't a long lane, but it's pleasant. Not far from there is a rocky lane that takes you up to the Pigeon Tower at Rivington. I walked up it a weeks ago, and with the combination of the elements and pillock 4x4 owners it looks to be a bit of a challenge near the top. I haven't taken my Smurf up there yet!Damian
