Starting from the centre of the village, walk along Beck Hole Road for .3 mile, passing the school, until reaching a crossroad. Turn right onto Darnholm Lane and follow the road until it reaches the beck. Note that the route involves some very steep gradients, particularly as it nears the beck.

At the bottom of the road, there are two ways to cross the beck.

The first is to follow the road across the ford, using the stepping stones if necessary, after which the path continues with an immediate right turn (2). If the road is submerged by water, an alternative route can be found on the right shortly before reaching the ford (1), and leads to a footbridge.

The path continues parallel to the railway line before reaching a set of steps to the top of a hill alongside the track (3). As the steps are uneven, care should be taken when climbing them.

Once at the top, continue on the path which runs to the left of a bank alongside the stone wall, before descending on a stoney track down towards the station (4).

If no trains are due into the station, the railway can be crossed using the crossing at the end of the platform. Once across the railway line, exit the station and head straight on the road out of the station which leads back to the centre of the village.
