Overview

Our walk begins in the lovely village of Sherborne and takes us across the fields to Windrush Mill and then up to Great Rissington, before descending down into the valley again to Sherborne. The final part of the walk takes us through woods at Sherborne Park, with its woodland sculptures and ice house. Throughout this walk there are charming views across the Sherborne Park National Trust estate.
