Overview

We take a rough track along to Merrymeet and down to near Culver Court, cross the Lilly Brook and go up to Oldridge Church, a long, steady climb with plenty of places to enjoy the views. After coffee at Oldridge we go down another rough track to Spicery. At Lillybrook we head along the valley to Frankford Farm and back to Culver Court.  We take the footpath through the grounds of the old convent and back to Posbury Church.  Lunch in the woods.
