Overview

This is a very different walk to the walk of the 5 May.   This one heads off in the opposite direction, up to the fort on Martinsell and then down, at first steeply, to the K&A at Milkhouse Water.  We then follow the K&A to Brimslade Farm and return along lanes and field paths to Martinsell via Mud Lane with its wonderful display of spring flowers.  I have also been told to look out for the Green Man on mud lane which sounds mysterious.   Sticks may be useful. There may be livestock enroute.    

Please bring refreshments for 2 stops.

Start at 1000 at the small car park at Clench - take the A345 out of Marlborough and after approximately 3 miles take a sharp left turn signed Clench and Wootton Rivers. After a mile or so the parking can be found on the right at the far edge of woodland and on the top of a hill. If you reach Wootton Rivers you have missed it.
