Overview

We will be walking up a lane past the Scouts hall to Highfield Park House with good views over to Lansdown. Then walking down to Wick, past Wick Court, to follow the River Boyd where we might see a Kingfisher. We then walk up Beach Hill on the road, down a lane to reach the footpath, through a couple of gates and follow the footpath back to the school.

We can have a drink after the walk in one of the two nearby pubs.
