Beth's mid-week summer pub walks are back for 2023!
Join the CYW for a mid-week summer walk from Oving, a historical village that sits on the Outer Aylesbury Ring.
Starting from the Black Boy Pub which dates back to 1524, we'll head south from the village and descend down Bunshill, before turning left to cross the open fields and a stream on our way to Whitchurch.
In Whitchurch we'll stop to admire the former site of motte-and-bailey Bolbec castle, which was burnt down in the English Civil War.
Finally, we'll head back up the hill towards Oving, picking up the Outer Aylesbury Ring, a route which was established by the local Aylesbury Ramblers.
Once we're back we will enjoy a meal at The Black Boy Inn - this walk is limited to 20 people to avoid overwhelming the pub.
Parking is available either at the pub, or park considerately on local roads.
Please bring water and dress appropriately for the weather. There is a small hill in the second half to get back up towards Oving so moderate level of fitness is required.
Note:
We will be starting at 18:30 - if you are just coming on the walk please arrive by then, but if you are planning on staying for a meal afterwards please arrive by 18:20 to allow time to place your pre-order.
