Don't attempt to cycle these on your bike unless you are Danny McAskill or similar

Great steady ride for two old gentlemen? in their 70s

Great pub with large beer garden at the back. Next to the old Higher Poynton railway station on the Middlewood Way. Also next to a cafe (for ice creams etc) and the Macclesfield Canal.

‘I got the shock of my life when I went in the Adelphi for the first time - you worked stripped - you just wore trousers and bare feet. The temperature was roughly a hundred degrees. Then, during the war, they started issuing us with rope-soled sandals. You couldn't wear shoes because the floor was just like an oil slick - oiling all those spindles’. Excerpt taken from a Bridgend Heritage Trail 8 Leaflet

Adelphi Mill in Bollington was constructed in 1856 by brothers George and Martin Swindells, expanding on their father's existing cotton mill business, Clarence Mill. Initially spun cotton, the mill later transitioned to silk and then man-made fibers. It closed in 1975, and now houses a variety of businesses, accessible from Grimshaw Lane.

A small, bustling town on the edge of the Peak District, with numerous independent cafés, shops and pubs. During the Industrial Revolution, Bollington was a centre for cotton mills, quarries and coal mines. Many of the historic mills are still standing, now mostly converted to apartments.

Cafe was open today. Very nice coffee and a delicious cheese and onion pie

Middlewood Way is an 11-mile (16-km) traffic-free greenway linking Macclesfield and Marple. This mostly flat route winds through fields and small towns like Bollington. While not as scenic as trails like Tissington, it’s still a charming ride. Shared with walkers and horse riders, some sections require caution and slower speeds due to limited space. In wet weather expect muddy conditions, with a slick surface that can leave you messy. In dry weather, the hardpack path offers a smooth and enjoyable ride.
