Overview

Join us on a pleasant walk from the picturesque village of Waltham St Lawrence.  The walk is mainly flat and through farmland with a little road walking.  We pass Crockford's Bridge on our way to Shottesbrooke Park where we can take time to admire the 14th Century church of St John the Baptist, the design of which was believed to have been influenced by Salisbury Cathedral.  We shall return to the start of our walk through fields and village allotments.
