St Cuthbert’s Way Walk Day 2 would see us walking from Newton St Boswells to Jedfoot Bridge – a distance of about 15 miles. Having stayed at the Drybough Arms pub in Newton St Boswell, we were heading off to Jedfoot Bridge for our second day of the St Cuthbert’s Way walk.

This time we would walk out to Linnet Clough. We met at the Townley Terrace car park in Marple. It was raining.
