Church Stretton -Ups and Downs

Details

This is a new walk which starts at the Cunnery Road Car Park in Church Stretton (free) Nearest Postcode is SY6 6AF or riding.count.samplers W3W.
It is strenous in parts and rarely flat proceeding through Rectory Wood towards Townbrook Reservoir and then down into Carding Mill Valley. Now an Up path towards the Golf Club with stunning views of the Long Mynd, The Lawleys , Caer Caradoc and the Wrekin.
Eventually into Cymdale and the Batch Valley with multiple ascents and descents finally returning via the war memorial and St Laurence's Church which has a pagan fertility symbol on the North doorway apparently? before a final steep field path up rectory wood back to the car park, Total distance is 5 to 6 miles but will feel more with the ups and downs. Short stop halfway, as usual, Afterwards we have the Pound Inn at Leebotwood (4 miles away) unless somebody knows a Church Stretton hostelry big enough for us all. Owners of dogs on a lead, please, as many farm animals in evidence.
