Overview

A short flat pleasant walk, with a couple of stiles and just 110ft of ascent. From Riseley, we head east along a short stretch of the Devil's Highway, a Roman road connecting Londinium (London) to Calleva Atrebatum (Silchester). The route then loops round through Bramshill Plantation before walking across fields and along quiet country lanes past Riseley Mill and Wellesley Water Meadow.

Please note that there will be a short stop for drinks/snacks, but no formal lunch stop on this walk.
