We are the East Staffordshire Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in the East Staffordshire area to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A fairly flat walk through attractive East Staffordshire countryside. Starting from St Peter's Church car park in the charming village of Marchington, we walk through fields and country lanes into the Dove valley. We cross the busy A515 and continue to the village of Draycott in the Clay from where we follow rights of way up Marchington Cliff from where there are good views of the surrounding countryside. We continue to Forestside Farm and onto Stock Lane in Marchington Woodlands before returning to Marchington village via more field paths.
This walk was included in the programme in late 2023 but had to be completely rerouted because of flooding. The walk includes several new and repaired stiles recently completed by the East Staffs Ramblers Rights of Way team.
Free parking in church car park, Church Lane, Marchington.
