This easy walk from the centre of Fairford passes over tracks, paths and minor country roads, with sweeping views of the rich farmlands of the Eastern Cotswolds.
Fairford itself is an ancient market town dominated by the Late Perpendicular 'wool' church of St Mary with its pinnacled tower, magnificent medieval stained glass and a wealth of carvings in both wood and stone.
The military air base nearby was where Concorde was flight-tested for a number of years.
The main square is lined with 17th and 18th century stone houses. There are a number of pubs in the town including the Bull, an old coaching inn.
