Overview

This Sunday walk is a 9 mile circular walk from Ashby out over the Pistern Hills to the Milking Parlour at Tollgate Brewery where we will have a stop of approx 1 hour to allow time to enjoy a drink and also, for those who wish, sample the pizza.  (Sorry, pic isn't actually from The Milking Parlour as I didn't have one, but I'm assured that their beer and pizza is absolutely yummy)
