Approaching Knott Fold


The sign approaching Knott Fold Bridge (#121 on the former Cheshire Lines Committee route from Woodhead and Godley Junction to Apethorn and Stockport (Tiviotdale) reads:

HORSES SHOULD KEEP
TO THE GRAVEL PATH
WHERE PROVIDED

NO GALLOPING

The route is now part of the Trans Pennine Trail and National Cycle Network Route #62. The gravel path on the left has been more-or-less reduced to a muddy track.

See how the sign looked in July 2009.

This view is from the opposite direction to the one I posted last Sunday.
