Overview

An interesting walk through three Leicestershire Villages. We will start from Eaton taking time out to visit the "Cake Shed" so bring some cash if you want a few goodies. We will go through Branston on route to Croxton Kerrial before returning back on a different route though Branston to Eaton. Please note that there are many stiles on this undulating route including some short steep ascent/descents.

Please register for this walk on Newark Ramblers website where you will also find details of our car share scheme.

We have permission to park in the Village Hall carpark in Vicarage Lane Eaton. Vicarage Lane is the first left as you enter the village from the Eastwell Belvoir Road. Once you have turned into Vicarage Lane immediately turn right up a slope to the car park which is on a higher level than the road.
