It's not often I use the main path to get to Coppice Stile these days, but today I did and the views behind us were stunning |

As the path passed Coppice Stile, the views of the moors opened up before us - just beautiful

Looking across to Black Coppice Quarry we saw two bikers descending the extremely steep quarry edge. Needless to say they had to carry their bikes as that path is not ridable
