Overview

A familiar area for many of us but organised such that only half of that (tedious) long tree-lined avenue has to be walked! We head off from Monkton Farleigh down a very quiet lane past Rushmead Farm to Lower Wraxall, a loop around to South Wraxall before a few field paths take us to a point halfway along that long, long avenue.  Back in Monkton Farleigh, there is another loop with views across West Wiltshire before returning to the Kings Arms.  This fine old pub is currently closed, hopefully not to be turned into yet another property with the prefix ‘Old’. 
NOTE: the day before I am having a joint COVID/Flu vaccination; if suffering severe side effects, there would have to be a late cancellation unless someone would like to join me on the recce and be on stand-by?
