Where it is

The circle shows the general area, not the exact start. Use the directions link below to get to the car park itself. Contours and paths shown are OpenTopoMap, drawn from OpenStreetMap data.

The route

Lanes and paths loop from the village through farmland and small woods. Gentle with plenty of stiles.

Worth knowing

  • This is old enclosed country with deep lanes and small fields.
  • The village pub is a good end point.
  • Working farmland; shut the gates and keep dogs on leads.

What you’ll see

Hedged farmland and deep lanes, small woodlands, and the coast to the north.

Background

The rolling country between the coast and the moors was enclosed early and the field pattern is largely medieval.
