A walk along Kirkgate Lane: views from the highest point (12e)
Hanging over the gate in SD5273 : A walk along Kirkgate Lane: views from the highest point (12c) you can get a glimpse of the pasture land and hills to the south of Priest Hutton. The hill on the horizon, 73 metres above mean sea level, is in the next square east: SD5373.
Kirkgate Lane
Kirkgate Lane is an ancient stone surfaced track between Whitebeck Lane, Priest Hutton and Tewitfield Chapel on Kellet Lane. It is not officially classed as a public byway on the OS map but as an "other route with public access". It is a pleasant walk gently rising by approximately 20 metres to its highest point before dropping down towards the Chapel and the bridge over the Lancaster Canal. There are some lovely views to be had through gateways and the ancient hedges are full of wild flowers and shrubby bushes including hazel, elder and sloe.
