Overview

A short circular walk familiar to many of you.

We set off from the Fleur De Lys in Lowsonford, Head out on Heart of England Way, then North past Bush Wood, down the other side of Bush Wood, head over towards Preston Bagot, and then home via the towpath.

Fields, woodlands, quiet lanes, towpaths.  The usual.  Lets see how big those spring lambs have grown, and what has replaced all those bluebells.

A couple of stiles, one a bit wobbly.  A mild incline.

Park in Fleur De Lys Car Park ... Lapworth Street.

It is nice if we can park at far end of car park - leaving spots very close to pub for non-walkers

Working assumption - a decent proportion of us stay for a drink / snack / meal, to support the pub.
