Overview

Paul is leading a 5.5 mile leisurely walk.

Walking from Brunel Road we will walk up Newbury Lane until we join a gulley that leads to Berryhill Park. We will drop down through the park crossing the Birmingham New Road through Brades village, where we will join the Wolverhampton to Birmingham canal. We will walk along here heading to Birmingham until we meet the canal junction where we will turn and head along the other canal towards Oldbury. We will leave the canal just before Lion farm playing fields where we will walk until we rejoin our cars.

Please arrive at 16:45 for a 17:00 start.
