Grey autumn on the Trans Pennine Trail


Through my neck of the woods the Trans Pennine Trail, a long distance walking route, and the National Cycle Network Route #62 from Southport to Hornsea follow the line of the former Godley Junction to Apethorn railway.

Here, looking towards the Stockport Road bridge, the leaf-strewn quagmire on the left is the bridlepath for horse riders, whilst the tarmacced foot/cyclepath is on the right.

See how it looked in July 2006.

  2. Beautiful, gentle leading lines pull me right into your photo to follow that walker. I like that I next notice the texture of leaves rather than the color of leaves. Beautiful, beautiful shot.

  5. Good idea to have separate sections - I'd hate to cycle or walk through the mud! Lovely autumnal photo.
