Wild Daffodils of Dymock, B walk (BOOKING ESSENTIAL)

B WALK DESCRIPTION: Distance 9.5 miles.  Ascent 487 ft. This is a circular walk from the village of Dymock where a group of poets and writers made their homes between 1911-14.  A display in the village church memorialises their work and achievements. In spring though, the area is best known for the daffodils that flower extensively in the fields and woods.  The walk largely follows the Daffodil Way starting west from the church over fields and through Allums Grove to Kempley Old Church (English Heritage for its well-preserved medieval wall paintings).  We then turn south largely following Kempley Brook and round to Kempley new church where we shall pause for a picnic lunch.  We return to Dymock via Dymock Wood.  Pub there if time.
