Hawk Green to Lyme Green

Set off today in unexpected sunshine, staying dry all day. Passed through Bollington and Macclesfield, being treated to wonderful countryside views. The  mills we saw today have all been preserved and kept in good condition. Moored at Lyme Green ready to tackle Bosley locks tomorrow.
