River Dee loop

A new route for me, trying to get as inventive as possible under current unprecedented restrictions. I left Rough Hill and ran to Eccleston, picking up the little path along the banks of the Dee to Aldford. So far, so familiar, but the next stretch - unbelievably - was new to me. I followed the banks religiously, round all the big meanders, past Churton to some Appalachian-style log cabins. This stretch feels surprisingly remote, little trodden, perhaps a reflection of its distance from the road. Eventually the path reaches Farndon, after which I headed back to Rough Hill via Rossett and Pulford.
