Our History
The Fell Club was started in 1979 and aimed to gather together once a month to walk the hills and dales, travelling by coach to venues and providing a choice of three grades of walk. The idea was very well received in 1979 and now in 2007 the walks are well attended with an average of 42 walkers per month. Travelling by coach enables us to circulate the walk descriptions so that members can sign up for the walk of their choice, catch up with any news about the church and its members and sets the scene for a relaxing day of fresh air, friendship and fellowship. There is usually opportunity at the end of the day to recover with a welcome cup of tea before leaving for home at 17.00hrs.
The walks take place between March & November and a Shorter Christmas walk takes place in early January again travelling by coach. A great meal is enjoyed at a hostelry of our choice after the walks and the coach enables everyone to relax on the way home.
The annual general meeting is in February and again is a great social occasion. People are welcome to come and try the walks for 4 months after which full membership is offered. The club is open to anyone who enjoys the beauty and peace of the open countryside.
We visit a wide area of venues, the Lakes, Derbyshire, Yorkshire
Dales, North Wales and The Trough of Bowland.
