Overview

Sunday 14 December: Bubbenhall. 9.5 miles,10:00 am start

This is a slightly extended version of the walk I led on Wednesday 19 November. It is an easy walk with no significant inclines and only one stile.

Park at the top end of The Malt Shovel car park, Bubbenhall, CV8 3BW. Alternatively, there is a layby on the main road just before the turn off for the village. Allow plenty of journey time via junction 15 of the M40 and the A46.

We will set off from the pub walking south along the Shakespeare Avon and Millenium Ways. After an hour, we’ll have our usual tea/coffee break, then walk east to Hunningham and Eathorpe where we will probably stop for lunch. We will then turn north west back to Bubbenhall.

Ground conditions were good on my recces and the walk but do come prepared if there has been significant rain. Car share if possible, and it would be courteous if some of us stayed for a drink afterwards.

I hope to see you there,
