Overview

Parking at Kiln House on the B4001, halfway between the village of Childrey and Challow Station. The house is next to Brick Kiln Works and there is a 40mph speed limit sign outside. Drive up the drive and there is plenty of parking by the house. This leisurely walk takes us along some of the leafy lanes between the villages of Sparsholt, Westcot, Childrey and West Challow. Please bring a drink and snack. After the walk you are most welcome to stay for drinks and cake at Kiln House if you are able to. Vale Walk Leader SMa 07770 751453
