Lathkill Dale

In the morning we started with breakfast at the café in Monyash before driving to the Orpheus Caving Club cottage to attend the Half-yearly General Meeting.
It was a lovely sunny day so afterwards we went for a walk in Lathkill Dale as I had taken the plastic box containing the log book for Lathkill Head Top Entrance a couple of weeks ago as it was damaged and had repaired it and was now now replacing it.
We continued our walk following a farm track to One Ash Grange Farm and from there to Cales Dale which we followed northwards to Lathkill Dale.
Crossing the footbridge to the opposite side of the stream flowing from the Resurgence Cave, we followed the ascending path on the opposite side of the dale to reach the top.
After walking back along the top of the dale, we returned back to where we had started at the layby on the Monyash to Bakewell road.
