Group walk: Sunday 13th April Burridge Heath, Little Bedwyn

Sunday 13th April, 4.5 miles


Crofton beam engine tower and building

Date: : Sunday 13th April

Time: 10.00 am – 12.30 pm

Location: Meet outside Bedwyn village hall, Frog Lane, SN8 3PB


A leisurely walk from the village hall, along Galley Lane to Jockey Green. From there we will head up hill on the bridleway past Mirldown House, with a view of the ruined early19th century tile kiln in the grounds – a reminder of the industrial history of this area.

 

The walk through Burridge Heath is on a hard metal track (no mud!) and at the road, instead of walking directly to Little Bedwyn, we will turn right and down the hill along the lane to join a footpath that leads through fields, with good views as we drop back down to Little Bedwyn. Our route home to Bedwyn and the hall will be along Kelston Rd and the bridleway that runs parallel to the (muddy!) towpath.

 

All are welcome. Meet at the start and bring a drink or snack for a short refreshment stop. No stiles, a couple of steady ascents. Dogs on leads please, sheep in the vicinity.
