07 Nov 2023Very muddy in places. Staircase crossing of A3400 isn’t great condition, take care.

09 Jun 2021A wonderful route between two Cotswold towns. Just as you leave Chipping Norton you get an amazing panorama of the walk you are about to take. Salford is a gem as the first village arrived at, then on through the Rollrights which is a mysterious pleasure. There are two awkward roads to cross A41 (with two steep staired banks) and the Hook Norton road just by Fanville Farm near the end of the walk. The walk follows the Shakespeare Way and the D'Arcy Dalton way. One of the pleasures of this walk is at the end the Hook Norton Brewery awaits.

16 Jun 2023Not the A41 - it’s the A3400. Having said that, you have to take great care in crossing. Traffic can be quite fast. Not only the brewery but brunch at the Sun Inn is very good.
