Overview

Starting from the large main car par near the A28 where there are toilets available if required, the route heads off along past the fishing lakes to Shalmsford Street before crossing the Stour at an old MIll Race and then the A28 road and heading up towards Fright Wood and then joining the North Downs Way for our return leg, passing through Old Wives Lees enroute. After the walk I was thinking of going to the Church Mouse Tea Room or Badgers Hill Farm for a spot of lunch if anyone would like to join me.
