Overview

A walk that will take us south to the Railway Inn at Killay for our lunch stop. 

On the way, we will pass the site of the old Dunvant Brickworks.

After lunch, we will head north to return via Donkey Lane (possibly muddy).  We’ll then rejoin the multi-user path back to Gowerton. 

The walk will be mostly on hard tarmac but be ready for some patches of mud.
