Story
A beautiful first day of May , the weather held and didn't cloud over too much , and the heather was short . There is little else to say .The colours are a bit sombre this year , and spring still a little tentative . Plenty of wildlife around though , and the dawn chorus was deafening .
There are no great problems with this route , but be aware that the fences in the Westend valley use barbed wire . In particular , as you approach Ravens Clough , you will see a fence across the whole valley . The only stile across is on on the path half-way up the hillside to the left , and I advise using it ....As always , the Westend can be a killer in spate , and be cautious of it after heavy rain - particularly when walking alone .
