Overview

We skirt the golf course at Ley Hill and then proceed through Pinner Green and Frith Wood down to the Chess Valley at Latimer. We have glorious views as we follow the Chess Valley to Blackwell Hall. The return is via White End Park Farm and Cowcroft Wood. Four stiles and a couple of gentle ascents.
