![]() | Today's walk does the southern half of the Colne Valley Circular. It started badly. I caught a bus to Golcar which I later found out doesn't go there with no indication from anyone or any bus display to say it only went as far as Milnbridge. When I got to Milnbridge and the bus started to go back to Huddersfield I moaned to the bus driver who said the roads were being maintained and they are unable to go there - you'll have to walk. Looking at Google Maps that's about 30 minutes! Grhh!! So today I started walking in Milnbridge.
