Gillian will lead walk from Barley with lunch at The Woodman at Nuthampstead. Pub does most things, soup, sandwiches, main courses, coffee. http://www.thewoodman-inn.co.uk/menus.html (prices are out of date on line at time of writing) There’s a big garden for picnics.

Walk is 7 miles in the morning and 3.5 in the afternoon and explores quite a bit of the Hertfordshire Way. Not suitable for dogs, due to large game estate.

We will start from Barley Town House car park.
