Overview

A circular walk starting the from the Feathers pub in Wadesmill and following well known paths such as the Harcamlow Way and passing the Youngsbury estate. Youngsbury consists of a 18th century park and woodland with 4 hectares of garden around the house, the front part which is dated 1745, the back early 19th century. There are extensive walled gardens, an arboretum, an ice house and tumuli and roman barrows within the grounds which extend to the river Rib.
The walk is all on footpaths and bridleways with hardly any road walking so suitable for dogs. It is very wet underfoot so suitable footwear is essential.
