Lytham, Witch Wood, Fairhaven and the Green

Marley is a little under the weather at the moment, just a bug I suspect, but we’ve had some lovely walks on the beach and on Lytham Green over the past few weeks.  Still working from home, he’s happy as can be, sleeping well (giving up on him sleeping downstairs has been the key to good sleep since we left Pemwortham) and now the turf in the garden has taken root he’s a great space to roam in.

Last weekend we walked from Lyrham, through Witch Wood to Fairhaven and back along the front.  It was a lovely walk, and our first woodland footpath since lockdown.  Social distancing on the path through the woods wasn’t too hard, with plenty of ‘passing places’.  Marley enjoyed a good sniff round, on lead.  Fairhaven is starting to look great, with new sea defences along Granny’s Bay, all stepped so you can sit and watch the world go by.  The new path back to Lytham Green was equally lovely, with the tide in to to the wall and a strong breeze making it very invigorating.

It’s a long long time since we walked through Witch Wood, on Boxing Day I think many years ago when Finney was a pup. I didn’t really remember it but think the fencing to the railway tracks is much improved. Definitely a walk we’ll do again.
