Overview

A flat walk with no stiles. We will visit historic St Marys Church, learn a little local history, follow the River Frome, visit beautiful Yate Common, then on to historic Stanshawes Court and Kingsgate Park. If we are lucky we will see the swans and cygnets. Finally the Chipping Sodbury workhouse and a bit more River Frome. There are also a few tree sculptures including a new Coronation bench. Ending with a drink at The Lawns.
