Overview

A delightful 5 mile walk through Blean Woods and the Broad Oak Valley, crossing the Sarre Penn stream.

The Broadoak Golden Lion pub has kindly agreed to let us use their large car park for this walk. Please park at the back to allow regulars to use the front. All are invited to join me for drinks and lunch in the pub garden after the walk. Meet outside the car park at 10am
