Overview

Meet at 9:45 for a 10:00 am start outside the Beauchamp Arms, Dymock.

The walk follows the footpaths and lanes in the upper Leadon valley around Dymock, Poolhill and Ketford. The orchards and spring flowers should be blooming, and perhaps some daffodils will still be showing. Views of the Malverns on a clear day. A lunch stop probably at Durbridge Mill.
