Northern Moor

This is a walk of just under two miles, and takes one hour to complete.  This is a scenic walk that passes St. Michael’s and All Saints Church and through Wythenshawe Park, Courtyard Tea Rooms and Wythenshawe Hall.  The park offers a pedestrian path, Bowling Green and many seats if in need of a rest or possible to walk a bowls match.   There are also toilets with disabled access and a small kiosk offering coffee and sweets here.  The Courtyard Tea Rooms also offer refreshments but only on the weekends and during school holidays.  Wythenshawe Hall dates back to Henry VIII but is now open to the public on weekends.
