Overview

We will start the walk from the Barley Mow pub in Cosgrove MK19 7JD at 7pm and proceed through the village and follow a grass footpath across fields to Old Stratford. We will then follow a footpath through the Ouse Valley to the viaduct. We will then follow the towpath alongside the Grand Union canal back to the pub. You are welcome to join us for a drink in the Barley Mow Pub afterwards. This is an easy walk along footpaths however please bring suitable footwear for crossing fields to Old Stratford especially if it is wet. Please bring a drink especially if warm. There will be a very short stop near Old Stratford. Please park considerately on the road outside the pub. Please arrive approximately 10 minutes before as we will be leaving promptly. We look forward to seeing you on our first evening walk this year.
