Overview

A moderate 8.5 mile walk across fields, tracks and Shropshire Way.

We start high up on Wenlock Edge at Wilderhope Manor before descending passed the historic Shipton Hall to the interesting grade 1 listed church at Holdgate in the lush Corvedale. We then follow the Shropshire Way back to the start.

Hopefully, we will be in time for tea at Wilderhope, further details to follow.

Please book with the leader so car sharing can be organised.
