Here we went off piste and tramped across a field then climbed an old rusty gate to follow a faint path between a wall and a burn. this eventually led us to a minor road where we turned left.<\/p>\n<p>Here my memory and the map differ. I&#8217;m pretty sure we turned left off the road and walked past Drum farm, but I may just be recalling the sign for the farm. This turned into a concrete road back to Lagg Cottage, where we went right. The final section was a round of Kirkbride Hill, where we had to negotiate our way around a cow blocking the path.<\/p>\n<p>I think that was the route.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Strange that such a pleasant walk exists so close to home.
