Notes and points of interest
Castle Coombe - this village has refused
to allow time to change it... a stubbornness that deserves applause.
A very small amount of traffic passes through the village street,
but most visitors come on foot from the Car Park at the top of the
hill. The village has a luxury country hotel, an ancient church,
a few appropriate shops and an old market cross. Apart from that,
it is sleepy cottages alongside a quiet street, with a trout stream
passing under a hump back bridge. The village is overlooked by wooded
hills that enclose it cosily. Bring a camera!
Golf Course - that walk passes across a
golf course at which some care may be needed to avoid flying golf
balls. But it is a pleasant part of the walk leading on and up into
attractive deciduous woodland.
