Overview

A great walk exploring the wooded edge of Coundmoor Brook and Stevenshill with views of Haughmond Hill, the Wrekin, Cound Hall and two interesting bridges.

Rambling mainly on footpaths through woods and fields. We may be lucky and see the last of the flowering Snowdrops. Very muddy in places! Sufficient parking in the Guildhall next to Cound Church and a few places on the road if needs be.

Please bring refreshments for coffee and lunch stops.
