Parking @BA20LT

A walk taking in mostly farmland around Timsbury,Huntrete And Stanton Prior. our walk was a misty wander, the sun did come out eventually with some blue skies. The paths were very muddy and fields very wet.  we take in part of the 3 Peaks walk ,the 3 peaks are Maes Knoll, Knowle Hill and Blackberry Hill all of which we covered in previous walks.also word of warning DON'T Touch Electric Fences They Are SHOCKING !
