8th May.
Started to rain as I woke up and was quite heavy by the time I was ready to go. Contrary to the weather forecast it almost stopped after a couple of hours and the rest of the day, although remaining gray, was very pleasant.

Just a short walk today, I had accomodation booked for tonight and was a bit closer than I expected to be.
A string of reservoirs gave an interesting walk towards Langfield Common where the way turned to Stoodly Pike.
Stoodly Pike Monument appeared through the mist.
It is a huge structure and there is a gallery above the base section accessable by an internal spiral staircase.

Down to Hebden Bridge to with plenty of time to browse the market and restock for the next section, which looks a little bare of shops and catch up with communications.
