Overview

A short circular starting from Packwood House, and taking us around lanes, fields and towpaths back to where we started. 

I've not recced this yet - but even now can say, bound to be muddy in places. 

Some chance of seeing lambs. 
I've also seen Kingfishers along the canal - though they are a law unto themselves.

Please ping your membership card if in the National Trust - as Packwood get paid even if you don't go in the house.
