Teeton

By Phil

8 miles: From the very small village of Teeton go up the map to Creaton, around a long muddy loop avoiding Cottesbrooke, or not, down the map to Hollowell, drinky-poos at The Chequers in Ravensthorpe, and then teeter back to Teeton.

Countesthorpe

By Phil

17 miles: Yes! 17 miles! Janet Long took two of us on a “short” walk from Fleckney! Along the canal past Newton Harcourt, past The Navigation, into South Wigston, through Blaby, down the map to Countesthorpe and then on to Kilby before returning home!

Bisbrooke

By Phil

8 miles: From Bisbooke, up and over to Seaton, along to Lyddington and then up to Uppingham and a choice of pubs. Finally, a gentle stroll back to Bisbrooke.

Brinklow

By Phil

8 miles: From Brinklow through the castle grounds, to Hungerfield and on to Little Lawford. Change direction and head through King’s Newnham and Bretford before turnong north back to Brinklow.

Lubenham

By Phil

4.5 miles: This Thursday walk took us clockwise from Lubenham, past Thorpe Lubenham Hall, the Judith Stone, and on to Marston Trussell and then back to Lubenham and the Coach and Horses.

Mowsley 2

By Phil

4.5 miles: A lovely and easy walk from Mowsley, up the map past Valley View Farm and then down the map to Laughton and finally left across the map to the Staff of Life at Mowsley.

Houghton

By Phil

4.5 miles: If you like to describe walks by their shape on the map, this is a lariat, or lasso. From Houghton-on-the-Hill head past Redver’s Farm, hang a right to take you past Monk’s Grave and bear round anti-clockwise past Old Ingarsby towards Keyham and then south back to Redver’s Farm, Houghton, and the Rose and Crown.

Cosby

By Phil

5 miles: Thursday walk led by the Cow Whisperer, Dave Bromley. An interesting and easy walk, even if we didn’t stick to the footpaths!

Fleckney

By Phil

4 miles: This was an easy “Let’s get back into it” walk. From the car park, past the school and then anti-clockwise around Fleckney Grange, The Meadows and Lyndon Lodge Farm. We ended up in The Golden Shield – where else?!?

Laughton

By Phil

8.5 miles: My first “proper” walk as a leader. This walk can be made longer or shorter quite easily (it started off as a 12 miler!). From Laughton to the canal, along the tow-path for a while, then down the map to Lubenham before heading north to Foxton and then back to Laughton.
