Weekday Walks - Summer 2025

Our first weekday walk of the summer season took place on Monday 4th August with a walk from St Andrew’s, Sedbergh to the Quaker Meeting House at Brigflatts. Having delayed the starting time of the walk to avoid the worst of Storm Floris, an intrepid group of eleven were blessed with a sunny, if slightly blustery, afternoon for our walk through the grounds of Sedbergh school and across the fields. We were met at the meeting house by David Smith who gave us an interesting and informative short talk about George Fox, the history of Quakerism and its foundations in the local area. We enjoyed exploring the meeting house and its grounds and were grateful to be supplied with tea and biscuits before setting off back along the riverbank to Sedbergh.

Our next weekday walk takes place from St Mark’s Church, Cautley on Thursday 14th August at 11am and our final walk of the season begins at St John The Evangelist Church, Cowgill at 11am on Monday 18th August. Do join us if you can and bring a picnic lunch.
