A lovely morning run with a pal and his fox terrier from outside the Cock and Pullet in Sheldon. Over to Magpie Mine where my first Lapwings of the year were spotted and down through fields to Horse Lane, via a short detour to the TP at High Low, and along to Monyash.
We then picked up the Limestone Way and followed it to Flagg before a trudge over fields rutted with cattle hoof marks to the top of Taddington. Past the mere and along the bridleway to Wheal Lane. Down into the top of Deep Dale and up the other side and back over the fields to Sheldon.
A circular route of 8.5 miles and 730 feet in 1hr 14 min. Not a soul seen!
