Today’s Hungerford-based walk will take us around some of the local countryside, where we’ll start off by heading towards the Kennet & Avon Canal to follow it towards Kintbury. Once there, we’ll head towards the Parish church of Saint Mary the Virgin, Winterly Copse and Catmore Copse to walk pass St John Baptist de La Salle. After a few miles, we’ll reach a farm, at which point we’ll walk around it before heading towards Hungerford Common and back towards Hungerford station to finish the walk. For those who want to go to the pub at this point, we’ll be stopping off at The Downgate Pub for a pint, which is a short walk from the station.
