Castle Coombe Market Cross

 

Castle Combe and Nettleton

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.
