From the old Duke of Lancaster ship at Mostyn along the Dee estuary past Greenfield Dock to Flint, with the Wirral across the water.

It felt good to run a sensible distance again. This stretch starts at Mostyn by the Duke of Lancaster, the old ferry beached by the A548 and covered in graffiti art.

From there you follow the Wales Coast Path along the shore of the Dee estuary. Greenfield Dock, from the 1600s, was once one of the busiest ports on the Dee. The best thing for me was the view across to the Wirral the whole way.

Another small step in my coastal adventure round the UK.
