Overview

We will take the Bridleway behind High Cross alongside the M11 to reach Coton Countryside Park where we will walk through a small woodland.  Walking along paths on the edge of the park we join the path up to Coton Church. We then walk to Girton College across a number of fields which give good views of the surrounding countryside.  We then take the permissive path round Girton College before returning to the car park through the new development at Eddington and the Brook Ley country park.
