Overview

Starting near Morley Hayes Golf Club we walk across a series of undulating fields to arrive at Brackley Gate and descend into Horsley Carr. Then up and across part of Breadsall Manor golf course. Across to Morley Almshouse and over the fields to Broomfield College. After which it is along the old railway line and across more fields to Morley. Our final section of field walking takes us through part of Morley Hayes golf course and back to the start.
