Yarningale Common

This amble from The Red Lion, Claverdon, CV35 8PE, on Sunday 1st September was led by Mary Coles. The 5 1/2 mile loop is mainly on footpaths through fields and on quiet lanes; it also takes in Yarningale Common, Preston Bagot and a short section of the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal towpath.

This walk of about 7 1/2 miles was led by Wayman and Beverley on Sun 19 May starting from the Fleur De Lys in Lowsonford, B95 5HJ.  The walk went through Yarningale Common & Preston Bagot and skirts Henley-in-Arden. The route is through fields (a few with horses and many with sheep), woodland and often near canals. There are some short hills.

An amble from the Fleur De Lys, Lapworth St, Lowsonford, Henley-in-Arden, B95 5HJ led by John and Sue Timperley.

The walk went from Lowsonford to Pinley Green and then to Claverdon and back to Lowsonford via Yarningale Common and along the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal. When we did this walk on 17 Feb 2024 there were several very wet and muddy stretches, so come prepared! The route takes in many little-used footpaths which makes it unusual and different. There are a large number of stiles a couple of which are tricky for large dogs, and many of which are in semi-disrepair.

This walk was led by Wayman and Beverley from the Fleur De Lys, Lowsonford, B95 5HJ, on Sunday 29th January, 2023.

The walk of just over 8 miles goes through Yarningale Common, Preston Bagot and Henley in Arden. The walk is through fields (a few with horses and many with sheep), woodland and often near canals.

This walk from the Fleur De Lys pub, Lowsonford, B95 5HJ (Google Maps) on 5 June was led by Sharron and Pete Maguire and was a little over 9 miles in total.  The route includes lovely pastures, wooded areas, a short stint along the Stratford Canal and beautiful countryside. The walk starts towards Bushwood, skirting both sides, then follows the Millennium Way towards Buckley Green where it picks up the Heart of England Way towards Preston Bagot. From there the route goes on to the canal towpath then across Yarningale Common and back to Lowsonford.
