Circular walk from Hartwell via Grafton Regis and Stoke Bruerne
This was a filler walk, so I won’t go into too much detail. The walk goes from Hartwell, via Salcey Forest and the tip of Long Street Hanslope to Grafton Regis - with a slight detour to make sure we didn’t get to the pub before opening!
After a lovely lunch at The White Hart, we followed the canal, up the locks, to Stoke Bruerne. After another pint, we visited the entrance to Blisworth tunnel (since when did it become a tourist attraction?) and then made our way, across the fields, back to Hartwell via Roade - ending in the Rose and Crown in Hartwell for a final pint!
