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.

20 Jun 2021I was unable to walk the route defined as there seems to be no PROW on the section passing through Great Carr Side Farm. By retracing my steps to Huck lane I was able to complete the walk following a different route. This being the case I will comment on this route upto Great Carr side farm.
The first section upto Lytham is a bit of a slog along roads, having just done LytFre1 its route along the promenade seems a much better option.
The route offers good (tarmac) footpaths upto Eastham Hall. Just beyond the Hall footpaths become compacted earth that look like they are prone to getting muddy. You then encounter stiles on either side of an uncontrolled railway crossing (single track).
The footpath continues to a track (Huck lane) and then to the footpath to Great Carr side farm. This footpath was difficult as it was along the edge of a wheat field. (I was disappointed that I had to retrace my steps :( ). It was here I met the problem with rights of way through the Farm and had to stop following the route.
