	End to End - The Pennine Way
		Many people imagine that the Pennine Way must be some ancient monument; a route travelled by monks or pilgrims, or a medieval trade corridor to Scotland, or an invention of the Romans.
		The Pennines were an obvious choice - the so-called "backbone of England", they form a virtually unbroken spine of high moorland and bleak, empty hill country along the watershed between the east and west coasts, running for some 250 miles from the Trent valley to the Carlisle-Newcastle Gap.
		The name "Pennine Way" is a bit of a misnomer because the route carries on beyond the northern limit of the Pennines, crossing Hadrian's Wall and traversing half the Cheviot ridge before terminating in the Scottish border village of Kirk Yetholm.

	Diary of the Pennine Way
		Where the Pennines end before the Scottish boarder, this would have be the logical place to end the Pennine Way, but the route extends along parts of Hadrian's Wall before turning north again over the Cheliot Hills to finish at Kirk Yetholm in Scotland.
		Seventy five percent of the Pennine Way is at a height of over 1000 feet, with the highest point on Cross Fell at 2930 feet, this being the highest point in England outside the Lake District.
		Since walking the Pennine Way in June 1990 (at the age of fifty seven) a very substantial part of the bogs have been paved, or the line modified to eliminate some of the hazards, which can be very real in bad weather conditions.

		The Pennine Way was the first official long distance footpath to be created in Britain in 1965 after a long campaign started in 1935 by Tom Stephenson, secretary of The Ramblers Association.
		While the National Park authorities try to improve trail conditions, it should be made clear that this walk passes through some of the loneliest and loveliest high walking terrain in England, and over such length there is a tremendous variety from high peat bog, heathlands, beautiful karst (limestone scenery) including cliffs, caves and rock pavements.
