05/11 – Ashton Upon Mersey Bonfire Walk

Remember, remember the 5th of November because we’re going on a bonfire walk. We’ll start from Ashton Upon Mersey and walk to the river, and down the far embankment. We’ll branch off the river and head over the motorway, turning left along Stretford Meadows. At this point it should be getting dark so don’t forget your torches. We’ll pop out on the road near Urmston before heading back to the river and recrossing the bridge. After a few hundred yards we’ll circle the rugby club and arrive for a bonfire. A family ticket (2 Adults 2 Children) is £15, an adult ticket is £5. Bonfire lit at 18:00 and fireworks starting at 19:00.
