Description

The circular walk starts in Madeley, along a back lane and then follows over undulating fields up to Wrinehill. From Wrinehill it goes through Ravenshall and Bowsey Wood before returning back to the Madeley Centre.

The 4.9 mile undulating walk consists mainly of back lanes, fields and some forestry, there is a short distance of main road walking through Wrinehill.

There are about 6 or 7 stiles that were not in great condition, but passable. When it was recced it was quite muddy underfoot mainly in the forest areas, so poles may be useful.

There were sheep and cows in some of the fields and some lane walking where dogs would need to be on leads, otherwise relatively dog friendly.

NB All walkers must have suitable footwear and be prepared for adverse weather, carry food and water to last for the entire walk and be suitably fit for the various lengths of walk.

Non-members of Audlem Rambling Society (ARS) are welcome to come on a walk but are expected to join ARS and pay the membership fee after a trial walk or two.
