Description
This alternative route is intended to be pretty direct, in response to a Slow Ways blog post about finding shorter alternatives to some routes. The ChaRoy One route has done an great job highlighting the rural and greenspaces nearby but this route chooses the opposite approach, following suburban roads with only very slight diversions to be easier to navigate or avoid slightly faster roads.
Resting places.
A short route like this doesn't need midroute eating or sleeping stops, but they were there anyhow. There is a small row of shops and takeaways on Burnley Way and very soon, just off the route along Westhulme Way, there is a hotel and a pub/restaurant. There is another pub later on Holden Fold Lane.

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.
