Track to Gale Lane

Image: © Andy Waddington Taken: 15 Oct 2020

This track leads from Hops House, Butts Intake House and Many Walls to join Gale Lane (another track) and eventually up to High Lane, an actual public road. It is not a public right of way, but waymarking is so poor that it is easy to find oneself on the obvious route rather than the bridleway to Birks End, and once there, depending on your final destination, continuing may be the default option. Since my car was at the end of Gale Lane and the dog really doesn't like traffic, I took the easy option and headed on this way. For anyone that objects to walkers blundering along where they don't really belong, better waymarking is the moral of this story.
