Overview

Josie & Jenny will be leading us on this walk from the Laughing Duck Café at Fradley Junction. We will pass Orgreave Hall on our way to Alrewas, before joining a stretch of the Trent & Mersey canal taking us back to Fradley. The walk is generally flat with just one stile.

We will stop for a short break during the walk, so please bring your own refreshments.

After the walk, join us for a drink or a snack at the Swan pub over the other side of the canal.

Please let the leaders know if you intend to join this walk.
