Overview

This is a linear walk from White Notley railway station to Great Waltham.  There are hourly buses back from Great Waltham to Chelmsford railway station.

Continuing along the Essex Way through some lovely countryside and picturesque villages.  We pass through Fairstead, Terling, Fuller Street & Little Leighs, taking time to absorb the history and beautiful churches along the way.

We finish at gorgeous Great Waltham for a drink and buses to Chelmsford.

Please bring a picnic and appropriate clothing for the conditions.
