Overview

Enjoy the delights of the Shire in late Autumn in this wonderful walk.

From Whitley Chapel our route takes us south to Aydon Shields then across farmland to Salmon Field and Rye Hill with lovely views across the Shire. We turn east via Turf House to Rawgreen where we follow the Devil's Water past Redlead Mill and Folly Plantation to cross the river at Peth Foot.  Our return is via Juniper and Mollersteads. 

A mix of farm and woodland tracks, field paths and minor roads.
