Overview

Meet at our favourite A148 layby. We start with a short walk beside A148 on the roadside footpath through Hillington Village to the church. We then follow part of the ancient Icknield Way to the woods at Grimston and Congham Heath. We take a roadside footpath along the boundary between Grimston and Congham to the cricket field and then footpaths and tracks across fields back to the starting point.
