Overview

A Walk along Stourbridge Canal, through Lawnswood past the infamous Yew Tree Farm where a paperboy was murdered but there has yet to be a conviction.  We will then re-join the canal and go onto Withymore Lake. The Robin Hood Pub in Amblecote won CAMRA pub of the year so there is the option of a pint there afterwards.
