Bradfield ancient way walk – Bradfield Walkers are Welcome

Description of the walk

The Bradfield ancient way is a linear walk from Worrall to High Bradfield. Bradfield Parish is an ancient parish considered to be the largest parish in England. It was originally part of a much larger parish, Ecclesfield Parish, with Bradfield being one of its chapels in the 12^th century. The origin of Ecclesfield Church and Parish are linked to the pre Anglo Saxon period. It is therefore not surprising that there would have been several paths or ways between Church, Chapel and hamlets and townships. This walk links several of these.

The walk is to celebrate the improvement of thirty five (35) stiles on ancient paths between Worrall and Low and High Bradfield as part of the Sheffield Lakeland Landscape Partnership Project.
