Wed Nov 15th - Priors Hardwick - Priors Marston v7 4 miles

Hi All
This ramble is in a lovely area of countryside. However, there were fields of longish grass on the recce, making the going harder, so we have shortened the walk a bit. On a previous occasion there was lots of mud, after rain. There are quite a lot of high stiles some quite difficult to get over. There are two lovely stone villages. The oldest houses in the Priors Hardwick are near the village green. The Butcher's Arms is dated 1562. 

Please note
We will be stopping for a coffee for about half an hour at the Cafe at Honesberie shooting school about two thirds of the way round.

I have anended this walk slightly. So it is now version 7 (if you wanted a map) and the ViewRanger shortcode is now uthreea0303
