From St Brides, we climb up over the Down and walk through Southerndown Golf Course to Ogmore Castle (for a coffee break). Avoiding the stepping stones, we follow the river towards Ewenny Priory, where we will stop for lunch. Then, we use minor roads and footpaths (including the Valeways Millenium Heritage Trail) to head back towards Old Castle Down, crossing the stream using the clapper bridge to return to The Milk Hut.
This walk is adapted from the Ramblers route 'Ogmore Castle, stepping stones and Ewenny Priory, Vale Glamorgan'.
