Description
An alternative to Melhud 1 which avoids
1. scrambling down the banking of Meltham Greenway at SE1087911401
2. the detour necessitated by the missing right of way between SE1251013497 and SE1269313605.
The route differs in that it remains at higher altitude by passing over open fields after South Crosland. It then passes through Butternab Wood and Greenhead Park before exiting on to Hanson Lane down to Meltham Road, Lockwood and then following the same route as Melhud 1

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.

06 May 2021Track between Crosland Edge and South Crosland often very muddy.
Wide-ranging views from the open fields after South Crosland.
Route passes along the length of Beaumont Park with views of the Holme Valley and Castle Hill.
It then drops down to a busy road junction at Lockwood Bar before following the Riverside Way to Queen Street.
