Overview

 

Due to the persistent rain and the ford and the amount of mud on the planned walk I have changed the route to favour tracks and lanes. There will still be plenty of mud!  The start and time of the walk remain the same.

A walk from Bridges starting with a steep ascent onto Adstone Hill.   We  pass through the hamlets of Adstone and Medlicott . Then a longish steep climb to the Long Mynd by Pole Bank before descending to Darnford Brook and returning to Bridges

Poles are recommended.

Please car share and park considerately at the far end of the carpark.
