Overview

Join us for a walk across some fairly flat farmland to the east of Warwickshire, but with a couple of hills too.  From the remote village of Grandborough we head to Sawbridge and Flecknoe, before going through part of the Shuckburgh estate.  If there has been wet weather the paths could be muddy in places, as we will be crossing arable farmland with seldom-used paths.  We will also go through fields of sheep, cattle and horses (separately), and have a good chance of seeing a herd of fallow deer at Shuckburgh.  There are several rickety stiles to climb, but with care they are usable.

Don't forget the clocks go back this weekend - you'll have a long wait for the start of the walk if you do!
