Where are you thinking about. How far into the Northwest are we talking?

Been very dry in the NW. Grassland blazes in Ardnamurchen and near Fort William. So careful with those fires.

cheers

I like the 3rd spot you have listed.

Have you been there before? My initial recce of it found it was rather brackish and oddly a pain to get into from the farmers field, although that was a good 8 months ago

Edit: Sorry that's Bird's Wood I'm thinking of a bit further over.

 

[spiritwalker]

when i hear northwest UK i think none other than wirral but i guess it should have been titled northwest england to clarify if i could get a pass and time i would be interested but im guessing that is going to happen at the moment

 

[Faz]

I'm from Runcorn originally and the first two seemed to look a little close to homes etc....
How close are they in reality?

 

[Lister]

generally about 3-5 minutes away from people, that being said, if you go deep enough into them you'll find a seduced spot.

St Berteline's/Windmill Wood tends to be extremely quiet and the only through traffic tends to be the occasional dog walk and horse rider.
Murdishaw gets a few ramblers and dog walkers owing to it's proximity to the playing field.

Took a recce through Murdishaw Wood with the pooches last night and to my astonishment found a couple with a full-blown 6 person tent camping in a meadow along some of the woodland, went to say hello but heard snoring so didn't fancy waking them up

Am possibly going to go for a hang in the next few weeks if anyone would like to tag along.
