Walk with a pub - Lancs

[Spiderous]

Hello,
I know we have a few fishes in the the North West and I'm looking for a bit of advice. I fancy getting out for a walk and a pub lunch at the weekend. Can anyone recommend (and possibly post a link to) a pleasant but not too challenging circular walk with a decent pub-lunch involved somewhere along the way, within an hour or so's drive of Liverpool? The wife is vegetarian so meat-only institutions are a non-starter.

Thanks in advance,
Ian

Trough of Bowland maybe? The circular Langden and Haredon is good - you might bump into the Pendle Witches though

The pub is close to the walk rather than a part of it

As above; lovely walks in & around Inn at Whitewell

I'd say the same with Aspinall Arms at Mitton too

If you wanted an interesting walk and sights; then Clitheroe Castle is lovely and you've got Holmes Mill within spitting distance; you'll be spoiled for choice at that bar

I've been to Whitewell before and done a nice walk in the area - menu is a bit limited for the missus thought. Not tried the Aspinall Arms. Been to Mitton before - What happened to the 3 fishes?

Great shout. The Trough is beautiful at this time of year. Actually, its beautiful at any time of year.

Might be one on this site that suits.

It went under ages ago

Currently Nortcote have got it and are doing it up; unsure if/when it's opening though

But it'll have to be good to compete with Aspinall Arms

Some nice walks around Jumbles resevoir, Edgeworth, Turton Tower, etc

I was going to suggest Kirkby Lonsdale area An hour and a bit from Home. Nice walks along The Lune.
