Starting from East Lancashire Steam & Diesel Railway Station at Ramsbottom, this gentle stroll through the parks and woodland of Irwell Valley descends to Summerseat Railway Station before gradually climbing to Holcombe Village (conservation area), with an option to ascend Holcombe Hill and view Peel Monument and the stunning panorama. A steep return to the train station passes through Ramsbottom Village with its specialist gift-, antique and food shops and a bustling Saturday Market.

22/09/09 - alfred giliker : 10/10 For this one, the only changes I noticed: The Liberal Club building is there but appears to be disused. Also the heritage centre in Ramsbottom likewise.

12/04/09 - Geoffrey Robertshaw : For information. We did this walk 549 on 11 April 2009. The house mentioned at Point 9 is no longer white. It has been sandblasted back to Sandstone. The Liberal Club is now closed and it is just a shell. I can send a photo if it would help. Hope this helps. Best regards, Geoff Robertshaw
