Overview

Meeting on the green by The Windmill pub, we will walk in a clockwise direction South and West towards Bough Beech reservoir, then a short distance on the road alongside the reservoir. This part of the reservoir is well known for bird watching and if the weather is warm and dry we may take a short snack stop here. The walk is graded as moderate but it could be heavy/boggy under foot unless the weather has been cold/dry, so please wear suitable footwear. If the weather is really wet it may be possible to shorten the walk slightly. If its fine and sunny we can extend it slightly with a climb up a short but challenging hill near the end! The Windmill will be open on the 27th and will be serving drinks and/or lunch. They advise pre booking if planning to eat in a group.
