Overview

We will walk from the new car park off Panshanger Lane north west towards Archers Green, crossing the B1000. This is a busy road and we are alongside it for about 200m, but on one side there is a layby and immediately on the other a wide verge. After crossing the Mimram, there is a gentle ascent towards Tewin, before which we turn right towards Marden Hill House. Going round this we continue north then turn right again onto the Chain Walk eastwards. After recrossing the B1000, we cut down to Thieves Lane car park and enter Panshanger Park. Our route takes us past the lakes, the abandoned cottage, the old Orangery and the Great Oak. We then head back to our car park.
