Help connect Middlewich
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of Middlewich’s Slow Ways.

At Parkfield Farm, the OS map shows the path going through the centre of the farm, but this has been blocked off, so turn left to walk in front of the farm buildings and then right at the end of them, to see the bridge over the railway line directly ahead. The next section between here and Hopley House is the worst part of the walk. After this comes a short section along the busy A530 until you reach Hopley House....
