This walk is in the past.
A walk in the Mendips from Hinton Blewett along quiet tracks, fields and woodland.
We'll pass the Victorian aqueduct by East Harptree.
Looks like it'll be a sunny day, but cool in the shade/when the wind is gusting a bit, so have some warm layers.
There will be muddy & wet sections, particularly by the aqueduct, so waterproof footwear is advised - best to wear walking boots for ankle support as there'll be some uneven ground too.
There are stiles and livestock along the route and we'll need to take care of vehicles along some tracks and a short section of busier road we'll be walking on.
Bring a packed lunch. We can visit the Ring 'O' Bells for a drink at the end of the walk.
There's a small book-swap box near the end of the walk (in Hinton Blewett) if anyone would like to do some book-swapping.
Bring packed lunch. Pub to finish.
