Starting with your back to Chapel Street,
walk across Leicester Road, and down the little road. Before the road
doubles back to Leicester Road, take a footpath
off to your left - joining the Leicestershire Round. Follow this way marked
route (right at fork) eventually reaching the old Fosse Way Roman Road.
Turn right along the route of the old
road (now a track) still following the Leicestershire Round. Walk along the
track for about 2km to High Cross (known to the Romans as VENONIS).
Here turn left, then left again onto High
Cross Road (towards Claybrooke Magna) then take the Leicestershire Round
footpath off to your right shortly. Follow this path into Claybrooke Parva.
At the road, go straight on (towards
Ullesthorpe) then take the footpath (Leicestershire Round again) on your
left. In Claybrooke Magna, turn right along the residential street, then at
the end, take the Leicestershire Round Path.
As the path splits, keep left, then left
again to the road. Cross over Frolesworth Lane, and continue along the path
(the left of the two) to Frolesworth.
At Frolesworth, we leave the
Leicestershire Round, turning left along the road, then left again down the
footpath by Manor Farm.
Walk along this footpath, crossing over
the Fosse Way, and eventually turning right along the Leicestershire Round,
back into Sharnford.
