The PROW behind Wades farm. Walk up Wades farm track and there is a metal gate to your left up a couple of steep steps. You then walk through two wooden gates with a polytunnel between them. Walk straight ahead to the stile that leads you to a path on your right. Following the PROW signs. You do not need to climb over as there is room to walk around. As you walk down this path towards the next stile you will find an area of path that is unstable, it goes down, then up, with a steep bank down to your right. The earth is very dry and falls away and there is no stability below
