NOTE: This walk replaces the Haddenham to Aylesbury Vale Parkway walk which was reconnoitred on the 24th January and found to be severely flooded a quarter of the way through the walk, with a short section up to one's ankles in water and the path on the edge of a flooded field submerged for about 20 yards under water at least one foot deep. The flooding has also affected other paths in the area so, regretfully, that walk has had to be cancelled.
Richmond Station (District line, London Overground (Mildmay line) or National Rail from Waterloo, Zone 4) at 10:30.
Hanwell Station (Elizabeth line, Zone 4)
