Overview

Lovely walk from Whaddon to Little Horwood and back.

The final return into Whaddon is especially beautiful. The land falls away sharply on our left providing stunning views over College Wood, Nash, Thornborough and Thornton.

Little Horwood is a charming little village with a brook, St Nicholas's church and The Shoulder of Mutton pub which has been part of Little Horwood's history for over 500 years. Locals have been enjoying a pint here since the reign of Edward IV.

There will be a seated coffee stop in Little Horwood at the former school building at the back of St Nicholas's church. 

Park considerately in Whaddon village near to Selbie Memorial Congregational Church, 13 Stock Lane, Whaddon, Milton Keynes, MK17 0LS.
