We are the Leadon Vale Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
This walk will include visits to three venues participating in h.Art week with an opportunity to have refreshments at one so no need to bring a packed lunch. Our first stop will be a few steps from the start at the Roger Oates Design showroom to view hand-stitched embroidery by acclaimed textile artist Paul Bailie. From there we head out of Ledbury and follow the Geopark way up through Coneygree Wood to Eastnor where we will call in at Eastnor Pottery to view contemporary ceramics made by each of the two owners. We then take a loop through part of the Eastnor Estate turning back towards Ledbury and stopping for about an hour at The Malbury Café on the A449. Here there will be 13 artists showing a wide variety of skills such as painting, fabric design, and glasswork. The café will be open and serving food and drink – so an ideal opportunity to purchase refreshments for lunch. We return to Ledbury via footpaths, lanes, and the Herefordshire Trail. Please bring mid morning refreshments (and a packed lunch if you don’t wish to buy something in the café).
Ledbury Market House, 3 High Street, Ledbury HR8 1DS.
