Overview

HI All, I  would like you to join me on a fun Spring Friday evening walk (hopefully sunny). It begins over a golf course, through some fields and woods and ends at the pub - well , it is a Friday. Its about an hour and a half long, so it can be managed by new joiners as well as regular walkers. Park your car near the junction of Four Ashes Road and  Althorpe Drive, Dorridge, SOLIHULL, B93 8SG. Dorridge train station is about a 15 mins walk away. You will need to wear sturdy footwear, and bring a showerproof layer just in case.

There will be fields to cross with animals so please check  with me before bringing a pet. I will rekky the walk again closer to the time of the walk, so I can see if there are cows/ sheep/ things there.

Park your car on Althorpe Road,  Dorridge  SOLIHULL B93 8SG just off the Four Ashes Road opposite the Golf Course and near the Drum and Monkey pub. It's a residential area.

See you there!
