Overview

We will leave the carpark at the Bridges, Ratlinghope at 10:15 am to ascend Adstone Hill and then use the Cross Britain path onto the Long Mynd before returning via Wild Moor.  A very scenic, moderate walk with panoramic views throughout.  Walkers are advised to bring poles if available as it might be muddy in places.

We start and finish at the Bridges Pub Car park. As the car park is really only for patrons, we suggest having a drink or even lunch at the pub after the walk. They will be informed that we are coming.
