Overview

This walk follows tracks and fields from Everton towards Barrow Hills ( a Site of Special Scientific Interest) and the village of Harwell.   From here we follow a footpath towards Holy Trinity Church in Everton. After this we follow small side roads and footpaths to  the A631, then back to our cars.
