Henwood and Wootton

This week Flint and I walked from Henwood (bus stop at the end of path from Henwood Farm.   Dog can be off-lead for 1st half of walk.   Some paths, some road.  




Cross the road and go right a few metres.  

Take the left path (marked) with a house in your left.  
 Continue down the lane and across field on well marked path. 
 At end of the field with the opening to a road ahead of you, keep within the field but turn left following the footpath next to the hedge.  

Now you are walking back to Wootton.  

At end of field it is necessary to climb over the wooden fence onto pavement. 

 Continue straight into Wootton village.  Pass entrance to industrial park on left.  

Take next left path into new housing and follow path/roads towards where you left the car.  

Come into pavement of the B road eventually and walk up Wootton road to reach car.
