Overview

On this walk we head out north eastwards from the Carpenter’s Arms across idyllic countryside to Walterstone Common and then on to the remote Church of St Peter at Llancillo, which is now cared for by the Friends of Friendless Churches. We then return to the Carpenters Arms across fields and along lanes for optional refreshment (pub is cash only).
