No signs from main road, except village names. Good track. Good photos of ravine at bridge and 'point 3'. Good views of waterfalls just before point '4'. A group of bikes passed at every corner. Watched cyclists skinny dipping at bridge 'point 8' on outwards stage of walk. Colin prodded a termits nest just before point '8'. Met a couple walking their dogs at '8', they were walking the opposite way around. Only found one possible entrance to old mine workings at 'E'. On the way home passed Harloch Castle.
