Oswestry Ramblers welcome people who enjoy walking and the countryside. We walk twice a week mainly in Shropshire and Wales and help improve local footpaths.
An easy to moderate walk over hard surfaced tracks, meadow paths and minor roads, passing the ruins of both Haughmond Abbey and Sundorne Castle. A short but steep descent from the top of Haughmond Hill, so walking poles definitely recommended.
Gatacre Playing Fields car park.
Haughmond Hill car park. Pound coins advised for parking machines. The parking fee for more than 2 hours is supposedly £4.00 but when we visited yesterday the machines weren’t working and the café owner told us no fines were being enforced till after the machines have been changed. The car park is large and windy, so suggest we gather outside the cafe for 10.45 before attempting to pay for parking.
