Overview

This walk uses field paths and quiet lanes and begins by heading towards Hanging Hill. After passing Sir Bevil Grenville's monument we descend steeply towards Ford Hill Lane. The path then takes us to the village of Woolley. There is a steep climb up out of the valley to head back to Lansdown.

Poles or sticks may be useful.

Bring refreshments for two stops.
