Overview

Start at Shipham Village Hall car park. A walk around Shipham taking in Winterhead, join the West Mendip way and make our way to Tynings farm. We climb up on to Blackdown and cross the common to close to Rod's Pot and travel along under Dolebury Warren to end up back in Shipham. 5 stiles in total. Coffee and lunch stops.

Please note that we need to descend a flight of steps which are not in the best state of repair. So, care will be needed.
