Between autumn 2014 and autumn 2016 Richard Sherras, a well-known villager & councillor, surveyed all of the footpaths in the Rimington and Middop parishes and also relevant connecting paths in the adjoining parishes.There is a significant amount of work here and whilst they are not walks themselves they are a great resource for anyone wanting to explore the village’s extensive footpath network.
He produced the following documents:
