Distance
Weather: cold but dry, snow later
Got the little bus through the Saddleworth villages to Stalybridge, which was rather an uncomfortable ride but interesting to see new sides of local places. Had breakfast in Stalybridge and set off walking along the canal.
Saw woodpecker, nuthatch, dippers and a heron.
The end of the walk through Delph and Denshaw was, as expected, very wet underfoot. The Tame River continues up to the reservoir above Denshaw on the map but there is no footpath and the trail ends in the village. We followed another unnamed tributary towards Brushes Clough where it started snowing and into Shaw.
