Created to mark the Oxford Fieldpath Society's Diamond Jubilee in 1986 to connect Oxforshire's major long distance paths with the Wessex Downs, and named after a notable defender of the county's path network. Includes the Cotswolds, Redland Hills, Thames Valley, Vale of the White Horse and Wessex Downs. Public Transport. Bus services to Wormleighton are infrequent: the easiest option is to go to Banbury, with frequent trains and buses, and walk to Wormleighton along the Oxford Canal towpath (14.5km/9 miles). Waylands Smithy is a short walk from Ashbury which has regular buses to Swindon, (though there may be no Sunday service in the winter) for regular trains to London, Bristol, Birmingham, Cardiff and Swansea. Shipton station, just off the route along the Oxfordshire Way near Bruern, has very infrequent services to Oxford, Hereford and Worcester. There are bus services to some of the villages along the route, and a useful network of buses in the Cotswolds section: see Cotswolds AONB page.
