Wootton Wawen

This walk from The Bull's Head, Stratford Road, Wootton Wawen, B95 6BD on Saturday 13th April was led by Andrew & Helen Collis. It is just over 4.5 miles long.

From The Bull's Head the walk quickly goes onto rural fields and then follows the path of the River Alne. At the end of a long disused railway line it then continues for about a mile along a reasonably quiet country lane with good verges and visibility of traffic. It then heads across fields, crossing a live  but infrequent train line (take extra care though on crossing!). It then follows the towpath along the Stratford upon Avon Canal and then across fields coming out in Wootton Wawen opposite the ancient church. A short distance along the road and back to the Bulls Head which specialises in "fiercely authentic thai" food but also serves some traditional pub dishes.

This walk will start from The Navigation Inn, Wootton Wawen, B95 6BZ, at 10.00 am on Sat 23 Mar and will be led by Gill Shalley.

The walk will be 8 or 9 miles long and will take in a length of the Stratford Canal, Austy Wood and the peaceful villages of Bearley and Langley.

There is parking at The Navigation Inn for customers, so parkers will need to eat and/or drink.

Please let Gill know direct or via hampton.walking@gmail.com if you intend to join the walk.
