| Walk Name | Goldthorpe to Bolton-on-Dearne via Darfield and RSBP Dearne Valley, Old Moor |
| Description | We take the Sheffield to Bolton train (dep SHF 10.15 arr BTD 10.46) then walk through pastoral Barnsley to cross the Dearne to Darfield where we can have a guided tour of the Maurice Dobson Museum (it’s 4 rooms in a house) from one of the volunteers. There’s a cafe and a courtyard (where we we can eat our snap) In the afternoon we walk along the Dearne and along the TPT past the bird sanctuary at Old Moor (another cafe opportunity) and to Goldthorpe station. I’ll be taking a final refresher in the Sheffield Tap. It's nigh on 13 km and flattish: proper excursion and day out.
