Easter Walk ๐ฃ St Albans to Gorhambury Estate
Details
This Is a brand new walk that Don, Frixos and myself recceโd late Autumn ๐ Weโve saved it for this Easter walk ๐ฃ
FREE MINI EGGS IF YOUโRE LUCKY ๐ชบ๐
We leave at 10.30 prompt from the entrance to the Verulamium Museum, St Albans AL3 4SW. Please congregate at the entrance and NOT the car park ๐๐ป (There is also free parking anywhere opposite Waitrose on King Harry St. 5/6 minutes walk away).
Please ensure you are ready to leave 10/15 mins before the departure time ๐
From there we cross the park and head West out of St Albans to navigate a field and a bridge over the A414. After walking through Park Wood ๐ณ little lanes take us through Potters Crouch, Appspond, to then cross back over the A4147. After passing Hill End Farm ๐ ๐ ๐ the route enters the Gorhambury Estate. A long Drive passes by Old Gorhambury (Tudor House Ruins) ๐๏ธ Gorhambury House, Roman Theatre ๐ญ and back to St Michael's Village, whereby weโll probably venture down to Ye Olde Fighting Cocks pub ๐ป which I believe is the oldest โInnโ in the UK ๐ฌ๐ง
The walk will take about 3-3.5 hrs and is approximately 8 miles. Weโll take a short 10/15 minute break half way round, so bring a drink and a snack.
