Surveys
We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.
Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.
Help people know more about this route by volunteering to submit a survey.

18 Feb 2024Very close to a version I had planned once I realised the original was impossible, which has now been deleted.
Unfortunately this one also has errors. First, once on the backroads of Buckley, we're supposed to take a footpath linking Linthorpe Road and Cottage Gardens. Despite being marked on OS maps, it's a ghost path and doesn't exist in reality.
The pathfinding through Burntwood whilst it gives the right impression isn't nearly accurate enough, especially as it uses footpaths and roads on a residential estate, and once at the Mormon church, there isn't really a footpath to the footbridge over the A494 except through bushes or on often boggy grass; it's easier to go through the small industrial estate car parks.
Once past Aston Hall Farm, the footpath become obstructed by fallen trees and lots of flooding, so it's best to take the footpath up and over the spoil.
Apart from these few errors, which I've corrected on BucSho Three, it's a decent route.
