Overview

Leaving Boxford Village Hall we head west to reach Sole Border before turning north-east and dropping down to Easton and the weir at Easton Farm. We then shadow the River Lambourn past Westbrook Farm and Knapps Farm to return briefly to the village of Boxford. A gradual climb then takes us to a track to Bagnor Wood, Copse Barn, and on to Jannaways, returning to our cars via the Lambourn Valley Way. Hopefully there will be an abundance of snowdrops to see along the way, particularly beside the river.
