Overview

Somewhat out of Coalville Ramblers usual territory, join me on this walk through the Staffordshire Countryside.  An ideal opportunity to car share before embarking on this 8 mile walk. The start is approximately 1hr 15 mins from Coalville.

No toilets on the route but at the pub at the end and maybe at the start.

Couple of stiles

Coffee and lunch on route.

The walk is over Farmland, Grassland and Woodland. There are no major hills but a few inclines. We pass Hatton Pumping Station which is now being turned into luxury apartments and Swynerton Hall dominates the skyline. This used to be a grand Manor House before being destroyed by Cromwells men during the English Civil War.
