Overview

Wondering what to do on New Year's Day? Contemplating dealing with over-indulgence? Want to get away from the family? You need A WALK!

Sue and Amanda will be leading Walk 34 from 'Twenty More Walks around Shrewsbury'. 6 miles moderate over moorland, grassy tacks and lanes. Meet 9:30 at Abbey Foregate Car Park and walk will start at 10:15 from the road end of the lane to Mitchell's Fold Stone Circle (SO 301976). Guaranteed no compulsory sword dancing or shortbread eating from our Scottish leader! The Miners Arms in Priest Weston will open for refreshments afterwards and some of us will be visiting this establishment after the walk. Let Sue and Amanda know if you would like to join them by text on 07931-246985, saying whether you require a lift.
