Overview

This walk takes in footpaths and quiet lanes around Berkswell & Hampton and the chance to view some of the ongoing HS2 works. On arrival at Hampton, there are plenty of benches for sandwiches although the White Lion around the corner will cater for those preferring liquid lunches. The direct route back takes us through fields and woodland with good views over to Berkswell Hall. The Bear pub is available if there is sufficient interest at the end.

The paths I'm using will be slightly diverted due to HS2.
