Overview

We will follow the Jack Mytton Way out of Church Stretton with excellent views back across the valley to the Longmynd. The walk will continue above Hope Bowdler village before heading northwards to Willstone Hill and the Battle Stones. Superb views can be enjoyed in all directions from this vantage point. The return route will follow the ridge line of Hope Bowdler Hill.
