Shakespeare`s Avon Way - Pershore and Burlingham

This gentle 7.5 mile walk starts at the Pershore Bridges car park overlooking the 15th century bridge over the River Avon. We proceed through the village of Pensham  and across the fields to join the river. After a coffee stop at the church of St Michael and All Angels in the pretty village of Great Comberton  with its half timbered thatched cottages we rejoin the river, crossing it at Nafford Lock. We break for lunch at another lovely church - St Jame`s at Birlingham, set in a bend in the river, then walk through fields and along the river to Pershore. There`s a nice range of cafe`s and pubs on offer in the town.
