Overview

This walk follows footpaths across fields to Preston Bagot Church. We then follow the Stratford upon Avon canal north east passing several locks and the Yarningale Aqueduct . At Finswood Bridge we leave the canal and, using a short stretch of lane, access the Heart of England Way across fields to Edge Lane.  We will then join the lane.  Following Edge Lane until we reconnect on the outskirts of Henley with the outward route.

There are a few stiles and some wet muddy areas but only one incline up to Preston Bagot Church.

Hoping to see you on 8th. Carol x
