Springside Walmersley, River Irwell to to Burrs Country Park

A walk from Springside Farm (a haven for many species of birds), along the recently completed walkway (used to be very muddy) following the river Irwell to Burrs Country Park. April is a great time to visit the area around Springside Farm. Take some butties, sit by the pond and listen to the birds chatter.

I have done my most of this route myself but accessed via Burrs, may nees to revisit now the new path improvements have been made. Love getting route walking inspiration from you 🚶‍♀️

So good they look after these little back routes isn't it. The area around Springside Farm is always immaculate, the birds obviously appreciate it.

Nice to see you in front of the camera more Steve, I'm guessing you're feeling more comfortable doing that now. Looks very pleasant around Burrs Country Park. I must say I did find "Just So" very catchy, even found myself trying to play some of your piano chords from it on my own keyboard afterwards! 😄👍

Hi Patrick, yes I'm getting over the shock of seeing myself on camera now, well almost. So pleased you enjoyed my jazzy piece, always flattering when a fellow musician plays it. The park is not far from Peel Tower (as you probably know) as featured in the opening of your videos, and just a couple of minutes from us.

I notice the lovely sunshine appearing in quite a few vlogers films. Think like me you still look warmly wrapped up though. I know the River Irwell having done walks like you around Burrs Country Park (not yet uploaded as filmed before recent new cameras). I recognise similar route we took too. Loved the gentle jazz/swing style of music 'Just So' especially with the guitar instrument Steve.

Sunshine and no rain, hurray, actually went for a walk yesterday without a coat. Burrs is our local park so I often go for an early morning stroll there. They recently got a grant to improve the park and I have noticed lots more picnic tables. Glad you like my jazz piece, I do enjoy writing for piano, bass and drums. My 360 camera is fun although editing is a bit of a pain, it really needs a very fast pc to edit 8K down to 4K.
