THURSDAY 23rd September 2021 - Shropshire Way Festival of Walks: Bury Ditches from Clun
As part of the Shropshire Way Festival of Walks, we are running a walk to Bury Ditches from Clun. There will be the choice of a short-cut, for those who prefer it.
Details of the walk and the meeting point have been emailed to all club members. If you are not a member and would like to join us for a trial walk, please contact the club via the CONTACT FORM at the bottom of the Welcome page and we will send you more details.
We will all head south, then uphill to Woodside, and on through woods to Clunton.
At Clunton, one group will cross Clunton Hill to Kempton to join the Shropshire Way. Then uphill to Bury Ditches, the old iron age fort.
Another party will head more directly to Bury Ditches via Stepple.
Everyone will then follow the same route back to Clun via Horrocks.
The longer route is 10 miles long, with approximately 1700 ft ascent. The shorter version is 9 miles long , with about 900 ft ascent.
The number of places on the walk will be limited, with places allocated in the order in which they are received.
Sunday 26th September 2021 – Bringewood Chase near Ludlow
This is an easy but interesting walk along and round an elongated hill, largely on forestry tracks and paths, with good views and the added interest of several interesting structures connected to the Elan valley pipeline, and naked ladies (wild autumn crocuses) which will hopefully be in flower. Grade C+. Approx 7 miles.
