Retrace the path from the Bridge and find the return path 10 yds to the right after crossing the second wooden footbridge. The narrow path goes uphill; at the end of the wire fence turn right and descend to go over a plank footbridge and through the metal gate. Walk up the field and follow the wire fence on the left, go by Rydding's Farm and continue to the double metal gate at the roadway. Turn right along the roadway. 100 yds before the next house look for the small stile at the double metal gate. Bear right and walk uphill for 200 yds to the road - Birdy Brow. (25 min)

At the roadside
a FP sign points the way following the line of mature trees. Aim
to the right of the wood ahead. The path crosses the stream to
the right of a large black pipe and ascends towards an old narrow
metal gate. The path is not well defined after this point. Bear
right over the field and follow the wire fence downhill to the
stile at its end. Over the stile follow the hedge on the left to
the next stile. Cut across the top of the field and follow the
hedge on the right for 30 yd to the next stile. Go through the
wide metal gate seen on the left and carry on over the field to
the final stile found in the corner of the field. Continue in the
same direction over the field to the road. (30 min)

Turn right
along the road and then left into the grounds of Stonyhurst College.
The route goes in front of the College and past the church. A FP
sign is seen on the right. Go through the new metal gate into the
field and follow the edge of the wood and then the hedge. The path
passes through three metal swing gates and leads into Smithy Row in Hurst Green. (45 min)
