Route:
• Starting at Houston's Mill car park follow the path that leads to Broughshane Main Street. Take care crossing the road to the entry archway of the Buttermilk Bridge Walk.
• Follow the path in an anti-clockwise direction staying close to the river until you reach the play park and car park.
• Turn left and go down Knockan Road to Main Street, turn left and proceed back to the Houston's Mill site. The path is well maintained and has no steep inclines or obstacles, making it wheelchair user friendly, and although there are a few drains and uneven patches in places on the Main Street, it is generally not too bad.
