Overview

This undulating route forms a large circle from Nuffied Church taking in Ipsden Heath, Stoke Row, Witheridge Hill, Nettlebed and Park Corner. We will make use of tracks and minor roads over farm land and through woods. Although we will be too early for the bluebells, we should encounter blackthorn blossom amongst others. The paths could still be very muddy but we will take breaks at the Maharajas Well and at Nettlebed Church. 

On our return to Nuffield, we have the opportunity to stop, by popular demand, at The Maker Space for tea and cake before we reach the cars.
