Overview

Mells, just a few miles west of Frome, is widely considered one the most beautiful villages in Somerset.  We will walk onto Barrow Hill with lovely views.  Walking mostly across fields and through woods, following the riverside path alongside the Mells Stream, it could be muddy.

Bring drinks and snacks as we will stop for a short break.

Optional drink after the walk at the Talbot Inn, which we pass on our way back to the cars.
