About the Author
Andrew Seaford lives in Cheshire and has been leaving Google Maps reviews for longer than he'd like to admit. Somewhere along the way, a 19th-century book called Scientific Rambles round Macclesfield - J.D. Sainter's account of tramping around Cheshire with a notebook convinced him the reviews deserved to be written up properly. These articles are the result: honest accounts of places worth knowing about, and a few that aren't. He gets outside when the screen time gets too much, which is often.
