Overview

After passing historic Willsbridge Mill, we walk the lovely, wooded valley alongside Siston Brook, and pass the prominent church on a hillside which featured in the recent TV drama the Sixth Commandment. We’ll walk along the ridges bordering the Golden Valley and alongside the stream in the valley bottom, with some modest hills and some level walking to negotiate.
