About the route

Starting point

LS16 8FY

We will meet in the car park of the Brownlee centre next to the entrance of the main building.

This route will take quiet roads to the lovely Eccup reservoir. After leaving the Brownlee Centre we will turn down St Helen's Lane before joining Adel Lane. As we pass the beautiful Norman church of St John The Baptist the road becomes Church Lane and then Eccup Lane. We will cross King Lane to join the even quieter Eccup Moor Road which takes us to Eccup reservoir. Here we will enjoy the view across the water before turning back and retracing our route back to the Brownlee Centre.
