Walk 2: Broadway to Stanway
3rd May 2013: We set off from Broadway at 11am. The route crosses the fields to the west of the town and then heads up to higher ground giving views over the Vale of Evesham. Farm tracks cross the plateau and lead to Shenberrow Hill (300m), site of an Iron Age Settlement.
The path then descends to the pretty village of Stanton, where the thatched cottages are topped with various ornaments (we saw a kangaroo(!), a fox, some ducks and possibly an owl). Leaving the village through more fields we emerged into the parkland of Stanway House, and finished the walk at Stanway Church.
Walk Distance: 6.3 miles (10.1 km), 2h20m.
Cumulative Distance: 12.7 miles (20.4 km), 4h45m.
Walk 3 will be on Monday (6th May).
