Circular Walk from New End

Cross directly over main road and take waymarked bridleway signed Alcester. Eventually you will emerge into a field with glorious open views ahead. Veer slightly right (this changed in 2023) to go into wood on downhill, sometimes muddy path. You emerge into field and keep wood right until reaching the bottom right corner, under a big oak tree, where a narrow path goes off to the right. At this point stay forward for 15 paces ignoring the path and instead turn left in same field to continue along field edge with hedge right. The path weaves left and right, but go along keeping hedge and trees right. Eventually, 25 paces after a sharp left at a field corner, you will come to a wide gap on your right marked with wooden posts and rail. Take gap and go right following around edge of field keeping hedge right. Shortly you will come to a wooden bridge on your right which crosses a ditch and here you will see the black and white Millennium Way waymarker. Do not cross this wooden bridge, but continue on with hedge right.
