Summary:
There is a simple rule to the Emley Boundary Walk. Keep the Emley Moor Mast transmitter station in sight and you will not go far wrong. The walk, which features the West Yorkshire village and its surrounding countryside is quite an undulating course on the lower Pennine moors and it features some appreciable climbs. From Emley village the walk is taken in a clockwise direction and goes via Clough Bridge, Mill Beck, Furnace Grange, River Dearne, Clayton West, Park Gate (Skelmanthorpe), Baildon Dyke, Roydhouse, Flockton Moor, Flockton and Lower Crawshaw before returning to Emley.
