Accrington's Annual Summer Evening Walk

Accrington Circle held their Annual Summer Evening Walk on Wednesday 10th.August. 

The weather was typical for a Lancashire summer evening, cold, wet and windy. Around 30 walkers met at the Boatyard Inn, between Blackburn and Preston. The seasoned walkers, lead by Andrew Dabrowski, followed a route in the beautiful countryside around Hoghton Tower. 

The less energetic walkers, lead by Karen Dabrowski, enjoyed a walk on the scenic towpath of the Leeds – Liverpool Canal. However the wise walkers stayed in the pub. All walkers returned very wet and bedraggled but agreed it had been a good evening. A supper and liquid refreshments was enough to make them seem human again.
