We're going to be in the area and this looks like a good spot. However I have a bad back after a fall. What's the walking like. Guidebook says it's flat but is it really? Mrs S I will carry the pads and I use walking poles. Is there much bracken around and what's it like moving between boulders bearing in mind and I am also visually impaired which is usually manageable but I am nervous of tripping again making my back even worse. Alternatively does anyone know a local vet you could just shoot me?
Thanks in advance

Lovely spot. Mostly a flat gravel access road for the reservoir, then a short tussocky stretch up to the boulders themselves, few minutes max. Mostly a single cluster of boulders and very compact. I had a walk on to the Hammerhead but that's a bit more of a flog. Cow's Mouth is a similar flattish walk from the White House pub nearby. You could go onwards to Stony Edge from there, but further and more spread out.

Many thanks Steve.

No bracken either. It's a wonderful spot. Enjoy!
