We are the East Hertfordshire Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

This walk is a meandering loop from Ayot Green via Ayot St Peter, Ayot Greenway and Lamer Park to Ayot St Lawrence and back with some lovely views across open fields and wonderful woodland paths.
The route will take us to the arts & crafts church in St Peter, Bride Hall - formerly WW2 Special Operations Executive weapons testing Station VI (think James Bond Q division!), and a very unusual footpath 'gate'.
Part of the walk is along the lime tree avenue that Apsley Cherry Garrard (member of Scott's Antarctic Terra Nova Expedition) used to walk from his home at Lamer House to visit his friend G B Shaw in Ayot St Lawrence.
The walk is mainly on made up paths but may be muddy in places so please wear appropriate footwear. Gentle inclines.
No cafes or toilets en-route. Please bring your own refreshments. We will have a break at the palladian church in St Lawrence.
We will meet at the Ayot Greenway Car park which is at the end of a gravel path. There is a wooden sign at the entrance on Ayot Green.
