The crossing

Last updated: 22 January 2006

After the upper burn the main line returns through the trees to the green, arriving by the hall. The crossing itself is Stop 7 on the trail board. After rain it is wet. It is a good burn to look at: a narrow water in older trees, with moss on the stones. The burn goes on, as burns do, and is not the walk.

In the observations for 22 January 2006 the crossing was not used. A faded mark at this point can still be found if looked for. It is the exception noted when the main line was last walked in October 2005, and it is rather handsome in that state. This is not the withdrawn Stop 4 of the 2003 leaflet; that stop has its own note.

If you are carrying the printed leaflet, read the correction sheet first. The measured line from the crossing to the hall is given as a mile on the board and as three-quarters in the current sketch. Take the board if the light is going. See the upper burn and conditions.
