Overview

This walk will start from Brandsby village hall. Starting at Brandsby we’ll go past Peel Wood and then through Yearsley. After Yearsley we go along the edge of Rutter’s Plantation to Pond Farm and the head of Oulston reservoir.

How we go from there depends on a recce. I’ve two choices leading to approximately 10 miles or 10.9 miles. The 10 miles is preferable for the time of year but looks to cross what could be a very wet area. This will be decided nearer to the walk date
