The Walk
Take the footpath on the Left Hand side of the road (not the first footpath on the road, the second one, about half way up the road). Walk along this path until you reach a road. Turn right along this road, and walk for about 150M. Take the footpath that branches off to the right. Keep on this path until you reach a farm track, and turn left onto it.

Keep on this track, going round past some farm buildings and a wood. Cross over a footpath and a track, and continue past the woods. At the end of the woods, you reach another track, after crossing over a stream. Turn left here, passing through a spinney. Ignore the paths off to the left. Keep on this track as it follows the line of the river, passing a Farm off to the left. Keep going until you reach a footpath on the left. Walk along this back to Burroughs Road. Cross over here and walk through the park back to Stamford Street. Turn left here and return to the start.
