Overview

A mix of woods, fields and heathland on Stoke Common. There is a short stretch on an enclosed path near houses. Towards the end there are several stiles, some a little rickety but do-able. We start from the village of Hedgerley with it’s village pond and interesting mix of old houses. We head south, through Hanging Wood and along the edge of Hedgerley Park. We skirt the reservoir in Stoke wood and then along the edge of Brockhurst wood before heading into Stoke Common, a designated area of special scientific interest. We will have a lunch stop here where there are a few benches.

We then turn northwards and then westwards along the Pickeridge and Pickeridge wood and the edges of a cemetary, before re-joining our outward path. We pass through the church yard on our way back and emerge near the White Horse PH.

Bring a packed lunch

Well behaved dogs are allowed.

The White Horse PH well has a great selection of beers and ales.

Meet by the village pond. You can reach Hedgerley from either the Beaconsfield services where you head to the services and then turn left on a signed road. All the way to the end and then right takes you to the village. It is rather narrow in places. Or from the A355 at Egypt turn towards Hedgerley from the other direction.
