A re-match from january when the weather beat us. Quite a long walk that gets most of it's ascent over with in the (longish) morning as it climbs up Bradwell Edge to Abney and Bretton before descending to the Bulls Head and lunch at Foolow (which means 'multi coloured mound' in old English apparently). A little bit more ascent up silly dale to Great Hucklow to start the afternoon followed by a cruise downhill to Bradwell and an ice cream (what!?) .About 10 miles in total.

Directions: Take A625 Hathersage to Castleton road. Look out for a left turn (B6049) towards Bradwell and follow this for about a mile. Just before the village proper is a triangular piece of ground which is a playing field. Park sensitively near it and meet on his hypotenuse.
