Former railway south of Bolts Law
Former railway south of Bolts Law
There's a good gravel surface all the way up the 160m climb of Boltslaw Incline, and the old railway track bed continues with a good surface to the north. The public footpath deviates away from the track (though I doubt anyone walks anywhere else) but the good surface is utulised by a permissive traffic-free cycle route on its way to the Waskerley Way as part of the coast-to-coast route. It does not remain this good throughout that distance, dropping to a single narrow path where it parallels the public road after Dead Friar's Stone.
