Overview

A rural ramble in quiet Cotswold country, with great views if weather is fine.

We walk down the valley from Tresham, eventually reaching Alderley, where we stop for coffee at the church (bring own drink, snack).

We continue across fields and a long steady incline back to Tresham. 

There are a few stiles and cattle in one field.
