Quarry and clough
The clough dividing the hills of Holcombe and Harcles being too boggy for this particular walker, I was directed by a kind local to an alternative route to the base of Harcles via this long-disused quarry, located where the path from the Peel Monument turns into Moor Road on its way down into the village. The stream still requires a little negotiation but I found it to be much less worrisome than the stretch further up and there is at least that wall to cling to!

The top of Harcles Hill
This is slightly more off the beaten track than the area around Peel Tower. The eye is naturally drawn to the surrounding views in all directions apart from the north west

Harcles to Manchester
Atop Harcles Hill, Lancashire, I am looking beyond the Peel Monument to the centre of Manchester in the hazy distance. If you look very carefully just to the left of the monument, you will see the strikingly tall Beetham Tower at the end of Deansgate.
