C Walk from Tittesworth 2017

Walk Leader: Terry Simmons
Total Distance: 5.5 miles app
Total Ascent/Descent: 600ft app
C Walk in a clockwise direction

We arrive at the Roaches tea rooms having passed through the small village of Meerbrook where The village Pub is situated, called “The Lazy Trout” this is approximately 600yds from the Tea Rooms. The Coach is able to park near the Roaches Tea Rooms and with no parking charges.

The Driver is also afforded Food & Beverage whilst there.

For the C walkers Coffee and Scones etc will be available,the scones were particularly tasty.

For our walk we head away around the Lake in a clockwise direction through Meadows filled with Wild Flowers [Bring your “I Spy “ books ] also various types of butterflies were seen.

Views of the surrounding area were particularly good and for walking excellent conditions and the highest point we reached was about 300ft.

The walk is approximately 5 1/2 miles but with all the stops and the “leisurely walk” it makes up for any more mileage we may have been able to do. At the end of the walk

For anyone who is a “Bird Watcher” there is a Hide to visit if you wish.

I have asked the Manager of the Cafe to open at 09.45 for us, which they have kindly agreed, as we are likely to arrive around 09.30.

Should anyone wish to visit the Pub [and as it is a little way from the Roaches Centre] the Bus on leaving the Centre could at a predetermined time collect those folk,
