2019 Walks
Walks changed since 2019 booklet was published-
14 July – 09:20 NOT 09:00. The Published time was a typing error. This walk will now be led on 23rd June. Can anyone offer to lead a replacement walk on 14th July?
25 August – Tram rail replacement works at the university corner on Glossop Road – Buses will replace Yellow trams between Fitzalan Square and Middlewood so planned connection with SL bus will need considering. Detailed timetables for replacement buses are issued very late so check your emails and this website.
