Overview

We set off from in front of the former Hatton Hospital.
There is on road parking available on Barcheston Drive and Mollington Grove .

Setting off on the towpath, we then head through Hatton Woods, Loop through Hatton Green, and return across farmland to the start point.
There are a few stiles, and some steps to bridge over canal.

This will be a spring version of a former walk - replacing some lane and road walking with fields, so it may be muddy. 

Afterwards, both the Hatton Arms and the Falcon are a very short drive away if folk want a drink / snack

There is plenty of parking available around the former Hatton Hospital, but, can we try and (a) spread out a little.  (b) Avoid any double parking (c) Consider car sharing...  We can all gather on the grassland opposite the old hospital while leaving the locals a throughway - smile.

There is ONE loo available after Hatton Locks.
