Overview

A rather shorter walk than usual along the Itchen Way and up to Bishopstoke. It will be at a gentle pace but there is a long flight of steps up through the woods. There are no stiles.

The going is mostly good but there is a section where the ground is soft. There will be some pavement walking.

See if you can spot the memorial to the local man who set off to make a new life in America but died in the Titanic disaster.
