Beat the Bounds Walk and Tea
20 July @ 10:30 am - 4:30 pm
Event Navigation
Rosie Birch (Margaret Gardner’s granddaughter) has offered to set up her Travelling Tea Room at Tresham Church on Saturday, 20 July, providing tea and cake at no cost (just donations to Tresham Church if desired). We thought we could tie it in with an idea, adopted by other villages, to ‘beat the bounds’, in other words to walk the boundary of the village, approximately 7-8 miles, shown below.
The walk will start at the top of Well Hill common and finish at Tresham Church where the Travelling Tea Room will be located. Tresham musicians will also provide entertainment.
We would like to attract not just villagers but others who visit Tresham such as walkers and cyclists.
The Full Walk follows the boundary as near as we can manage and will be marked with blue ribbons. There are then shorter versions to cater for as many people as possible – the shortcuts back to Tresham will be signed. Full details below.
- Actual ‘Boundary’
- Route 4, Full walk 4hrs
- Route 1, 1 hr walk
- Route 2, 2 hrs walk
- Route 3, 3 hrs walk
Please note we have obtained permission from the landowners involved where the route does not use public rights of way. Dogs must be kept on the lead and ‘poop scooped’!
If you are coming by car we have limited parking at the top of Well Hill. Please park at a right angle to the highway.
The Full Walk will start from the bench at the top of Well Hill at 10:30 aiming to be back at the church at around 14:30. The Travelling Tea Room will open at the church at 14:00 so those doing the shorter walk(s) may wish to set off later in order to arrive in time for tea! The walks have differing degrees of difficulty:
Route 1 – Easy – 2.6 miles
Route 2 – Easy – 3.8 miles
Route 3 – Moderate – 5.0 miles
Route 4 – Difficult with some steep grassy slopes, walking stick/pole recommended – 7.4 miles
Hope to see you on the 20th! Any queries just post a Comment below.
