Summary
| Description |
English: Start of Kirklees Trail, Greenmount The Kirklees Trail is a 2.5 km shared use path for walkers, cyclists and horseriders along a former railway line (currently) between Tottington and Greenmount. At one time Greenmount village was a stopping point from Bury to Holcombe Brook via a rail line operated by the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway, this line was closed to passengers in 1968. The old rail line is now the central footpath through a park and nature trail through Kirklees Valley called Kirklees Trail, this trail provides an alternative flat route for pedestrians to access the neighbouring town of Tottington (the alternative route by road involves negotiating two steep hills via the A676 or 'Stormer Hill'). There is also a lake popular with fishermen, an impressive bridge over the river, a bird sanctuary (Greenmount Wild Bird Sanctuary)and a cricket club all situated along the trail. |
