With Addington Church on your right, and a modern house with a well in the front garden on your left, go through the gate and follow the North Buckinghamshire Way across farmland. After 450yds (400m) come to a stile and narrow footbridge over the Claydon Brook. Continue ahead to a stile and plank bridge and keep to the right edge of the next field. Over to the left lies Furzen Farm. Cross a track and a stile, then make for a kissing gate. Cross this to discover a section of overgrown long-disused railway line. A ‘Stop, Look and Listen’ railway sign is still in place.

Follow the North Buckinghamshire Way, keeping The Station House of 1870 on the right. Now a private residence, this was part of Verney Junction Station. Note the Victorian postbox in the wall. Walk along the road to the old Verney Arms pub, which opened in 1890 as The Station Arms and now houses a restaurant. Keep right at the junction. Follow the road passing Verney Junction Business Park, and bear right at the next junction for Buckingham and Padbury. Re-cross the old railway at the next bridge – look over to the left-hand side where some of the old track is still visible –  and continue along the road, following it round a left bend. When you see a black metal sign for 'Lower Claydon Hill Farm/Alborada Alpacas' look to turn right to join the Cross Bucks Way.

Cross a stile and bridge and follow the fence along to a second stile. Go diagonally right in the next field, passing under electricity cables, and cross the site of an old railway line (no traces now remain) via two stiles. Go straight ahead in the next field to a galvanised gate and then, through the gate, veer to the left of a stand of trees. Cross back over the Claydon Brook via a stile and a narrow footbridge with a stile at each end. Once safely across here, veer diagonally right. Across the field are two gates; make for the left-hand one and head diagonally up the field, towards the right corner and the farm.

Draw level with Hill Farm, pass through a waymarked gate (climb over it if it is secured), walk a few paces up the track, turn right, cross a stile to another stile, then go half left to reach a track and three stiles. Once over these, aim diagonally right across the field to a stile by a galvanised gate (ignore the stile to the left). Cross over it and go straight ahead into the next field through a gate, then head diagonally right to a corner of the field where you will find a waymarker and stile. Bear left and walk along the lane to a road junction with a one-way traffic arrow. Turn right here, then bear right again at the next junction and return to the church.
