Overview

From Stour Meadows car park we follow a path through the grounds of Bryanston school, then we're on the Jubilee Trail up to Sutcombe Wood and Field Grove. We continue to Broadley Wood and over Quarleston Down, then back down to Blandford. 

Given the recent weather conditions the ground is muddy in places, so please wear walking boots and bring walking poles, if you have them.
