Overview

This walk takes in the new gate with memorial plaque dedicated to Chris Nickless, a long time member of Amersham Ramblers who sadly passed away last year.  Starting from the Plough at Hyde Heath (which has recently re-opened) the walk is a typical Chiltern walk taking in fields,  woodland and lanes.
