Overview

This morning’s 7 mile walk starting from the Rose and Crown in Hartwell heads through the village to the edge of Salcey Forest, where we head north east through the forest. At the edge of the forest we turn north towards Piddington crossing over the former Stratford upon Avon and Midland Junction Railway line, shortly after turning west to Quinton Green and the wind turbines beyond. Then turning in a southerly direction we head back to Hartwell.
