Merry Christmas.

Sturminster Newton is the start for our next ramble which is on Sunday 28th December.

It's to be a 'fig. of 8' walk. AM: 6 mls - around Fiddleford Mill, Piddles Wood and Broad Oak. The route is over fields, tracks and lanes so muddy in places if wet. Moderate. PM (optional): 3 mile route, nearby countryside towards Hinton St Mary. Fairly easy.

Lunch in Sturminster Newton after AM walk, bring a picnic and / or use local cafes in town.
