Tues 6thJune*5miles*St Cross*pub lunch option at end

Circular walk from The Bell Inn, St Cross going somewhere in the local area, which covers St Catherines Hill, St Giles Hill, The Water Meadows, Winnall Moor, White Shute Ridge, Hockley Down, Twyford Lock, Compton and beyond. Moderate pace for 4.8 miles. Note; no shorter walk option this time. A modest hill at 4.8 miles is likely unless it's wet. If it's wet we mostly avoid slippy areas and the mud. Come and try us out! There is an option afterwards for lunch or a drink in The Bell Inn - no pre-order needed. Finish at 12.30. If you are not using the pub, there is 2 hour parking in Mead Road, on the other side of St Cross Road. You should be back within that time. A bus pass is occasionally useful, though not planned this time. The Blue Star No. 1 bus to Southampton, every 20 minutes from Winchester bus station or Chandlers Ford, stops at The Bell.

We have limited numbers on our walks. Please do not turn up for a walk without booking.
