A delightful circular walk with excellent views. Steep ascent from Snailbeach through the industrial archaeology site (can be viewed at the end of the walk) up to the Stipperstones. The path continues to Shepherds Rock, follow the trail to Brook Vessons before descending to Upper Vessons Farm and the hamlet of Habberley. Onwards to Poles Coppice where we ascend via Maddox Coppice and back to Snailbeach.
The walk is 9 miles and is a B grade. The route can be followed on OS map Explorer 216.

The walk will be limited to a maximum of 14 members, with places allocated in the order in which they are received. A record of those attending HAS to be kept for COVID-19 track and trace. A brief notice of the walk will be posted on the web site and a comment will be added when the walk is fully booked. Please read the Rules below for maintaining the current Covid-19 regulations.

I will contact those attending if the walk has to be cancelled due to any change in government guidelines for the area, or any other reason. The infection rates in Shropshire are currently low but if they do rise we might revert back to walking in groups of six.
