Due to reasons beyond our control and the probable dangerous condition of the riverbank we are sorry to have to announce that we have cancelled this walk. Hopefully we can put it on our programme when the weather improves.
We are the Bath Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Mells is widely considered one of the most beautiful villages in Somerset. We will walk onto Barrow Hill with lovely views. Walking mostly across fields and through woods, and alongside the Mells stream. Muddy and slippery in places, (walking poles recommended!), and several fallen trees to climb over.
Bring drinks and snacks as we will stop for a short break.
Optional drink at the Talbot Inn on our way back to the cars.
Occasionally a walker will have agreed with the leader they bring a dog on a Kingswood Ramblers walk – if you need to know if there will be a dog on this walk, please contact the leader to check.
Please consider if the M4 closure will affect your journey - the M4 will be closed between junction 19 (M32) and junction 18 (A46), as explained in the website link below. Motorway traffic will be diverted along the Avon Ring Road, the A420 through Wick, and the A46.
If you are delayed, please ring Lesley (07789 521696), let her know how long you think you will be, and the leaders can start a little bit later to allow for latecomers.
Meet at Park Recreation Ground, Longfields, Mells BA11 3PR. Use What3Words ///assure.market.gullible. From the Radstock direction, when you see the sign telling you that you have entered Mells, look out for a small blue sign on the wall on the left pointing to a turning on the right which says Village Car Park. This is the turning you want - Longfields.
