Details

Come and join me for a lovely walk through rolling Warwickshire countryside starting from the picturesque village green where there is a beautiful large church with a 14th century tower and chancel and a pretty little pub called The Bell. We'll walk through wide open fields, farmland and also see the remaining chancel of Ullenhall old church some of which dates back to the 13th century. We might see a farm dog called "Fan" who will want a game of throw the stick with us. We may also come across some friendly sheep who don't want to run away from us because they will think it's feeding time. We'll see how the other half live too in a few mansions along the way.
