Overview

This circular walk starts in the centre of Much Wenlock and heads up to Wenlock Edge. We will walk along the Edge and then drop down to the village of Homer. Crossing across a number of fields we will cut through a wood to reach firstly a farm track and then minor road to the furthest point - Sheinton. We will continue across fields and woods to cross the A4169 (Much Wenlock - Buildwas road), returning to Much Wenlock along the old railway.

If we are lucky there will be rhododendrons in flower as we cross an extensive wood on our way back to Much Wenlock.
