Overview

 

   A classic country walk, going across fields and through varied woodlands, including Weethley and Cold Comfort Woods, and hopefully some more. There is some up and down, about 800 feet of ascent throughout the walk. At this time of year it should be a very pretty walk, with some good views, and perhaps a deer or two. There may be some mud, it depends on the weather over the next few days. There will be a few stiles.
