Today in Charlbury…
If you’re a Top Gear/Grand Tour fan, you may know that today’s circular walk will take us from Charlbury to Diddly Squat Farm of ‘Clarkson’s Farm’ fame. Starting at Charlbury station, we’ll head the River Evenlode and towards the Oxfordshire Way before heading the Wychward Way. From here, we’ll then head into East End before walking along a footpath that takes us parallel to the fields owned by Diddly Squat Farm. At the end of this footpath, we’ll turn left onto Old London Road to take us towards Diddly Squat Farm Shop, where we’ll be stopping for lunch.
After lunch, we’ll partially go back the way we came from before we walk past Diddly Squat Farm before walking into Millend to pass Chadlington Park before turning right onto the footpath towards Brookend. Here, turn right onto the road before turning left onto the footpath on your left to take us back to the Oxfordshire Way back towards our finishing point at Charlbury station. For those who want a pint at the end of the walk, we’ll be stopping off at The Bull, which is roughly a 5/10-minute walk from Charlbury station.
