Pub
Strolls in Somerset
Paperback. £7.95. 96 pages. Fully Illustrated.
ISBN 9781853068300
I have planned the 30 walks in this guide to combine some
of the most beautiful scenery in Somerset with the opportunity
to enjoy a meal and a drink in a good local pub.
The strolls vary in length between 2 and 41/2 miles and are
suitable for everyone. You will find a wealth of places to
explore. These include the church of St George in Bicknoller,
famous for its intricately carved bench ends, Perry’s
Cider Mills in the tiny village of Dowlish Wake,
an historic pub in Croscombe haunted by monks, and
one of the most spectacular views in Somerset from the grassy
slopes of Lollover Hill , near Compton Dundon. Among
other routes you will enjoy delightful rambles along the towpath
of the recently restored Bridgwater and Taunton canal, and
the rocky gorge of Burrington Combe in the Mendips and a walk
in the footsteps of William and Dorothy Wordsworth near Nether
Stowey.
I
give information about where to park and interesting places
to visit.
The sketch maps are numbered to match the text.
