Buckden Wood (Stubbins Estate)
Stubbins Estate, between Stubbins and Holcombe, Ramsbottom, Bury, BL0 0NS · Bolton & Bury
Buckden Wood is a beautiful deciduous woodland with cascades on the National Trust's Holcombe Moor and Stubbins Estate, west of Ramsbottom. The 2-mile Stubbins Estate circular walk (about an hour) passes through the wood and past the historic Tentering Tower, with views over the Rossendale Valley - the Trust calls it a perfect adventure for the whole family. Cafes and pubs are close by in Ramsbottom, Holcombe Brook and Helmshore.
Spark Hub tip: The National Trust rates the circular walk moderate - expect uneven, rocky and muddy terrain with some steeper areas, so it's not one for pushchairs. Dogs on leads 1 March-31 July.
