Overview

5.5 mile hike from Pulverbatch taking in both Corthercott and Wilderley Hill, featuring medieval mottes, baryte mines and ancient lanes. 

A final opportunity to walk off those mince pies and create room for some traditional Christmas Day decadence.  

The photograph, taken on a walk a few years, shows the descent from Cothercott towards Pulverbatch.
