Overview

One of three walks around Kirton.  This one has been chosen because the ground is solid underfoot and doesn’t get muddy.  There maybe puddles however.

The walk goes north from the village green along a farm track before turning right down into the Mill River valley (flooded in the 1953 storms).  We head south at White House towards Falkenham Church.  Hopefully the snowdrops will still be out.  We return home along short stretches of road and farm tracks.
