Route Green Tree pub, Brotton High Street. Cross the

road and walk up Kilton Lane. A very old cemetery is on the right.

Keep on past the roundabout for the newbypass. In its centre there is a 3-metre Sheave Wheel,a reminder of this region’s rich ironstone heritage.

Walk on to Kilton Thorpe (30 minutes/1.5 miles).Pause (and perhaps investigate the informationplaque about the medieval settlement) beforecrossing the adjacent stile.

Cross the field, bearing left, to another stile at the edge of Merry Lockwood Gill wood. Cross the path of the old railway line and go directlydownwards, into the wood, to a clearing andconvergence of two streams. Cross the main stream via the footbridge.

Go up the steps of a short slope to a stile. Cross this and see another stile, some 60 metresaway and then walk up a grassy slope to a newishfence, with Rylock barbed-wire. Walk along from the corner. Follow this to another stile.

Keep the field’s edge on your left, ignoring stile partway along. At hedge opening go right and follow the hedgerow all the way and cross a raised farm track. Green Hills Farm should be off to your left.

Into another field, passing three oak trees. Keep on, even though there appears to be no exit, to the field corner. See another stile by a holly bush.Follow the waymark across one more field to anotheropening, where there are the remains of an old stile.

Find two markers here (North Skelton Circular).Go left, around the field, to another stile, via a PublicFootpath sign that takes you back on to Kilton Lane.

Go right and walk along the road for about ten minutes to Lingdale for the bus home.

Route No. 81 bus. Bus stop at Newton-u-R. Walk on

to parking/picnic area. Turn up here (Roseberry Lane). At edge of Newton Wood look for plaque that givesthe history of the region.

Go left through wood, see a stile ahead but go right before this, up some stone steps. Follow this track, keeping the hill on your right.

Continue upwards, ignoring left fork and keepingto the track, three trees to your right. You are onRoseberry Common.

Where several trails now cross keep straight on to a stone wall with wire. Go left, following this,past a small hill to your left, up laid stone steps and a winding path to the top. This is Newton Moor.

Wonderful back view of Roseberry Topping, withall Teesside on the horizon. Comfort stop. See threetrails; take central one to wood edge. See two posts.Through gate and bear right at wood edge. After 5-7minutes go right, through gateway and up a slightrise to a National Trail (acorn) post. Fork left along a single track, which soon becomes a very goodwalkway of stone slabs.

Ahead see your next stop, Highcliffe Nab, withHighcliffe Farm on your left, as track rises slowly tothe edge of Guisborough Woods. Go left through the wood to the new metal Tees Link and attachedrucksack. Look for the metal footprints around the base.

Cross track and ascend to the Nab. View on aclear day is breathtaking with, for once, no Topping to – well, top it! Go back down to the nearby trackand turn right, descending.

Go right at bottom, a stile, follow track forapproximately 1/2 mile. Evidence (usually) of ongoinglogging operations along here.

Where track curves right see another trackdiverging, to the left and downwards. Follow this for 200 metres to where track bends up to the rightagain. See a stile and opening to your left. Take this.

Narrow stony track will lead you to outskirts ofGuisborough, Belmangate and town centre for buseseither way.

Not a new idea perhaps but certainly a better way tomaximise one element of a healthy lifestyle. You don’tneed to ‘get on yer bike’ and you can forget the car!All it costs is a few pence and a little shoe leather. It has been scientifically proven that regular walkingcan radically improve a whole range of medicalconditions, not least reduce hypertension, excessweight and enhance skin and muscle tone. All that’srequired from you is a little commitment. The rewardscan be a heightened awareness of the countrysidearound you and a sense of wonder at just how muchyou have been missing out on the real Redcar andCleveland. So why not give it a go? There are noguarantees but the possibilities are almost endless.Start today. The future is in your hands – and feet!

Route Warrenby Roundabout bus stand, at the

western end of Coatham Road, Redcar. Bus stands at both sides of the road here. Walk along Warrenbyroad and over the bridge. This is no longer a viablecommunity and the road goes on to the South Gare.

To the left see Coatham Marsh Nature Reserve, a car park some 100 metres ahead. Well worth a visitnow or later. If ‘later’ then go on for almost 1/2 mileto the council reclamation compound.

Cross the road. Just before compound see a prepared opening in the fence. Go through and follow single track through the grass and up onto the ridge. Pause here to take in the 360 degrees view.

Look south, over towards the Trunk Road; in the foreground you will see a stream, barely flowing.It is fishable but only under licence and no barbedhooks. This stream is known as The Fleet.

Abundance and variety of flora here: marsh-marigolds, yarrow, spearworth, toadflax, blackmustard, meadow buttercup, etc.

Walk down the ridge and across the stream. You will see a metal footbridge ahead. This takes you over the main railway line.

On the far side see a rough vehicle track. Goalong this for 50 metres, looking for three stuntedtrees by a single track to your left that takes you up onto a grassy knoll. These mounds are basicallyindustrial/archaeological relics.

Follow this, heading down to a stand of treesslightly to your left. On the right a brown brickbuilding. Keep right, emerging onto the Trunk Roadvia fence opening. Cross here to go to Dormanstownshopping centre and the Broadway for the bus(es) or opt to go left along the Trunk Road to the trafficlights and Locke Park Corner bus stand(s).
