Overview

We leave the Knot Inn car park along the disused railway tracks until we exit left towards Saint Lawrence church.

We exit the church and cross over Bandridge Lane, and then over several fields and one tricky stile onto Ditchway. Passing Ditchway Farm at the top we turn right into Long Pool, and right again down Woodhouse Green.

At the bottom of Woodhouse Green we go through the style and follow the path down into the valley where the River Dane flows. Keeping right and joining the Gritstone trail we make our way back to the Knot and (for those in our Group who have pre-booked) our Xmas lunch.

Walkers from other groups are always welcome, as are non-members wanting to sample walking with our friendly group of ramblers. Just turn up and make yourself known to the walk leader.

Please make sure you have an ICE (in Case of Emergency) card on you when out walking – you know it makes sense - if you don’t have one then ask the walk leader for one before the walk starts.

On our walks, we regret no dogs please UNLESS the walk is described as DOG FRIENDLY.
