Circular Walk from Henley-in-Arden along the Arden Way to Morton Bagot and back via Heart of England Way

This walk starts outside the The White Swan Hotel, 100 High Street, Henley-in-Arden, B95 5BY. The nearest free car park is on The Croft, B95 5DY, just off the High Street. See below for a map and photos from the route. 

 

From the White Swan proceed north along the High St. and turn left into Station Road, after about 100 yards bear right along Bear Lane. Directly after going under a railway bridge look for a gate at the top of a stepped bank on the right and go through it to a footpath running parallel to the railway on the right. this is the Arden Way, follow this path to where it turns left on a golf course, pass in front of the golf club and go half right to a sign post. Follow the Arden Way waymarks to the right and proceed along a bridleway with a hedge on the left, when you come to a lake turn left to keep the lake on the right, when you leave the lake keep ahead, following the Arden Way round to the right, over a stile and half left to a gate leading to a farmyard. Cross the farmyard to a road. 

 

Turn left along the road for 1/4 mile then look for a green track on the left (still the Arden Way) at the edge of a wood, follow the track to the end of the wood and then turn right along a road. 250 yards along the road turn left over a stile onto a footpath with a hedge on the left, after some 300 yards the path goes through the hedge and leads into a churchyard. Go ahead through the churchyard around a tree on the right and exit through a gate onto a tarmacked track. The track leads onto a road, turn left along the road and continue to a T-junction. At the T-junction go straight ahead through a gate and follow the path diagonally across a field to a gate in the hedge, down a bank and across a lane into another field via a stile.
