Overview

This is a themed evening walk with a difference. It will pass Sixfields, go through Storton Pits and skirt the training pitches next to Franklin's Gardens. Then in Weedon Road there is an opportunity to see up close the Yarn Bombs created by WIs featuring and promoting the Women's Rugby World Cup which starts later in the month, with several matches here in Northampton. There will be time to take photos.
