About this Event
A circular walk of approximately four miles, focusing on the flora, fauna and points of heritage interest of Newhall Valley. We will walk along Plants Brook, turn uphill towards Walmley, walk along the top of the valley, then descend to New Hall Water Mill.
At New Hall Water Mill, a volunteer will guide us around the grounds and explain the Mill’s fascinating history.
Participants are advised to bring a drink and a snack, which we may consume at picnic tables within the grounds of the Mill. Toilets are available at the Mill. There is no charge for admission to the mill but a donation for the upkeep of the Mill would be much appreciated.
The event is an outdoor walk. We will be crossing uneven areas of fairly long grass, and a narrow footbridge accessed by several steps. Some of the paths are narrow and can be muddy. Stout, comfortable walking shoes are recommended. Dogs cannot join this walk.
