August 2019. The river bank has given way just before you reach Waypoint 16 where a sign says that it will be closed for six months. Although a path goes up to the left just before the closure I would not recommend it as it is extremely steep and slippery, a hazardous route that needs a lot of attention. I would wait until the riverside path is open again. Jim Grindle.

Lovely tea room at WM09. Turn left and the tea room is on your left. Picnic tables outside so dogs are welcome.
