Fancy taking a day off?

Then join Stephen on a 7 mile walk on a Thursday in a little known part of Lancashire .

Highlights of the walk will be-

  • Walking through the small village of Overton and along Basil Point
  • Visit St Helen's church one of the oldest churches in Lancashire
  • Walking across the fields to the coast and along the shoreline
  • A poignant visit to the grave of a young slave boy who was buried in the corner of a field rather than in the graveyard (Sunderland had a strong connection with the early slave trade)
  • Exploring the historical village of Sunderland which was a port before Liverpool was established.
  • Walking on the tidal causeway to the back to Overton- it will be low tide 
  • Then afterwards, we could sit out the rush hour and have some food at a local pub. Planning to go here for food/drinks, a short drive which is en route home.
