Overview

A short walk of only 3.5 miles, especially for beginners. So please encourage all your friends who may wish to start walking with us but feel that the usual 5ish miles may be too far. It’s an easy walk with no stiles - just one rickety bridge. We will see a little of the town, river, one pedestrian crossing, fields and canal returning through the town. The walk could be extended on the day if we have no “new” people or any just wanting to do the 3.5 miles.
