Overview

Following in the footsteps of local Rambler and author Gerry Stewart, from Alderton village the walk visits the church of St Margaret of Antioch before heading onwards to Bulman ponds, stopping for tea/coffee with views to Broadway Tower. It passes through the bluebell wood towards Dumbleton to meet St Kenelm's Way. Then comes an ascent, noting the chimneys of Dumbleton Hall and views towards Bredon Tower, before pausing on the downward stretch to look across Alderton towards the Cotswold escarpment.
