We are the Chase & District Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
We're walking at Boylestone this Sunday which is just north of the A50 at Sudbury and some ten miles south of Ashbourne. You're most welcome to join us too, but if this is your first time out with our bunch it would be great if you could let us know you're coming along. Cheers - see you there!
Registration: 09.45. Walk start: 10.00.
The walk itself is though pleasant rolling countryside. Mainly on field footpaths, tracks, and a little road walking on quiet lanes. Approximately 20 stiles and probably muddy in places if the weather remains wet by the weekend.
Toilets available at the start courtesy of Boylestone Village Hall. This event wouldn't be possible without their kind assistance so we'd like to make a donation of at least £I.50 per person. Thank you. (No loose change if you can help it please).
Directions:
The start is located to the east of the A515 just north of Sudbury, Derbyshire.
From your home location to Sudbury either via the A515 northbound from Lichfield or the A50 in either direction. From here take the A515 northbound, direction Ashbourne, for 1.75 miles to turn right signed for Boylestone & Church Broughton.
Follow the course of this road for 1.2 miles to enter Boylestone village, passing the former Rose & Crown pub on your left some 500 yards beforehand. As the road rounds a right hand bend look out for the entrance to the village hall on your left a few yards after the road junction as per the second photo.
Turn into the entrance, drive past the hall and park on the overflow grass car park to your right shortly afterwards.
