Description
This is a slight modification of Poynew One, and intended to replace that route due to it having technical problems on the website.
The main modifications are that it uses a different bridge at New Mills (as the bridge originally chosen is closed to traffic for safety reasons as of Oct 2022) and crosses the Macclesfield Canal at an accurate crossing-place which the original track missed. I give full credit to the originator of Poynew One for the main body of the route, but have verified this version myself on foot. I'd appreciate other reviewers checking it, as it's my first GPX upload

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.
