Overview

An afternoon walk from the centre of Knowle, exploring the countryside north of the town.  There are sections through fields, along the River Blythe and country lanes.  There are a few stiles along the way.  It’s a short walk, so we won’t have a long stop, but there are plenty of places to have a drink and snack in Knowle at the end.
