On a warm, cloudy day with a threat of rain and thunderstorms forecast later in the day, Gill led a group of nine walkers on a circular walk round the Anglezarke reservoir via The Goit and Healey Nab. From The Great Barn, the route followed the shore of Rivington and Anglezarke reservoirs to White Coppice, stopping on the way for a morning break,.before continuing to Healey Nab for a lunch break with views of  Blackpool Tower available. The return route followed the opposite side of the reservoir through woods and fields back to the start, with the group encountering a short shower on the way.
