[with] On my own [weather] showery but bright - This was my second attempt to bag Clough Head. The first was aborted in mist. Didn't really enjoy the long walk in before the ascent; probably better with others to chat to. Climbed again on 31.07.20 on a gloriously sunny day using walk c239 Repeated walk c239 on 27.07.2022 but walked further along the Old Coach Road before climbing up to Clough Head via White Pike. This was a much clearer & easier path than the one from Mariel Bridge.
