Circular route from The Red Lion, Hopwas

A 10 mile walk from The Red Lion at Hopwas led by Bob Reid on Sat 14 Aug, 2021. The walk starts with a short stretch of the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal soon transferring to a country lane for a little over a mile to a fruit farm. From there it passes along rural footpaths back to a four mile stretch of lanes and roads to and through Drayton Bassett and Bullock's End. The route then crosses the Coleshill Road and goes over the folly-like Drayton Footbridge, complete with turrets and spiral staircases, to the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal towpath which it follows to Fazeley Junction and then back to The Red Lion continuing along the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal towpath once more.
