C WALK DESCRIPTION: 7 miles. 585 ft ascent. The walk starts with a drop off in Henley in Arden town. We head east below Beaudesert Mount, the site of the medieval castle, towards the pretty church at Preston Bagot for a morning break. We then follow quiet lanes and fields to the Fleur de Lys pub at Lowstonford. In the afternoon we follow The Millenium Way westwards to Buckley Green finishing north of Henley.
BOOKING ESSENTIAL, please use the link above for our booking page. Coach fare £5, payable cash/cheque or in advance by bank transfer.
The Birmingham Ramblers recently bid for, and won, a grant from the Inclusive Communities Fund which is part of the legacy of the Commonwealth Games. This grant is specifically to assist with coach transport to encourage new people to join the Sunday walks and start walking in country areas.
We will be using this fund to subsidise coach-based walks, such as this one, in areas which offer opportunities to new inexperienced walkers as well as challenges to regular walkers under the banner Keep Fit for a Fiver. As this suggests, we are reducing the coach fare for this and some other selected walks to £5 for all, be they regular walkers or new faces.
The coach pick-up is the layby at the side of St. Chad’s Cathedral. B4 6EU.
