My Country Walks



Welcome to my new blog following my move to the Cotswolds in early 2018.

Previously living on the edge of Dartmoor I shared details of my walks on Dartmoor on my previous blog My Dartmoor Walks. As I explore this new area I will share details of the routes here.

Sunday 26th May 2019 Temple Guiting

A dull day with some drizzle. Starting from Temple Guiting and following the Winchcombe Way through Ford and Cutsdean. Across to Stumps Cross around the edge of Guiting Quarry and on the Cotswold Way past the Beckbury monumnet to Farmcote for the lunch stop. Across and back to Campden Lane to follow the Gloucestershire Way for a short distance before cutting down to the medieval village of Pinnock. A short steep climb through Waterloo Larch and back down to Temple Guiting in the rain.

25 on the walk. 8 miles and 950 feet ascent.
