Overview

This walk will take us in the opposite direction to the previous Newton listing as we will walk to Foxton.  On the way we will pass by Newton Church, take a short walk through Fairie wood before walking up to a viewing point. Following the track we will enter Foxton and going through the Recreation ground we will enter the Dovecot and Meadow conservation area before taking our coffee break at the village green.  After we will make our way back to Newton via Foxton wood and the main public footpath which will also take us through a small woodland.
