B Walk

Burgh to Carlisle

Leader: Barbara Eden

Report by Barbara Eden

Ten of us caught the 93 bus and, after the bus took the scenic route to Brough by Sands,  we finally started our walk from the church to Beaumont in drizzly rain.  The footpath from Beaumont to Kirkbride was diverted to the road for about 3/4 of a mile. Once there we were able to get back on the path to Grinsdale and then followed the river back to Bitt’s Park. The weather made it difficult to find somewhere to have our lunch but when we reached the tunnel under the western bypass we found our spot with somewhere to sit out of the rain.   The last hour or so was spent in weak sunshine.  We then ended the walk with coffee and cake in the dog friendly cafe “Gone to the Dogs” which was fun.
