Overview

A slow short walk from the Compasses Inn Overflow Car park. Two choices - walk can be finished after 1.89 miles or continued through Whitmarsh Wood for full distance. Several stiles. A visit to the pub justifies our use of their car park. If possible let Anne know in advance to help with booking. Dogs on leads
