A series of circular walks, starting from the centre of Milwich, have been devised for the enjoyment of residents and visitors. Contained within the routes are historical references and descriptions where appropriate.
The aim of these walks is to encourage healthy walking and the exploration of the footpaths and countryside around Milwich; we hope you enjoy these routes!
A full colour glossy booklet of these walks was available but is now out of print unfortunately and therefore it is no longer possible to provide a free copy to residents. Please use the route descriptions on this website (see below). Enjoy your walking!
We are extremely grateful to Richard Jackson and Alison Rose for the preparation of these walk descriptions and to Randle Knight for the historical content.
These walk descriptions can be downloaded and printed (click on the title below). The booklet contains more information and copies of the relevant Ordnance Survey maps..
Some of the route descriptions in the booklet have changed slightly, in particular there are additional stile(s) on the following walks:-
- Beacon Bank
- Sandon Wood
- Four Parishes
- Fradswell Park
These changes have been included in the descriptions below. If you follow any of these routes and you find a problem with the route description or would like to provide feedback or suggestions for alternative walks, please e-mail your comments to info@milwich.com.
Ability to read a map is helpful but not essential to follow these walks. The best map for these walks is the Ordnance Survey Explorer 258 which can be obtained from good bookshops or directly from the Ordnance Survey’s website.
