Around Tutbury
Our view
From the picnic site, head right at the roundabout into the town. Stay right at the first fork onto Monk Street and, after 150yds (137m), head right at Castle Court up a footpath to St Mary’s Church. Pass the church and the castle entrance to reach the road. Go right here and, at the top of a short hill, follow the footpath signs to the right.
Go down this footpath, veering half right onto the flood plain. In the far corner of the field go through the open gateway to the next and cross the stile a few paces away on the left. Head diagonally right to another obvious stile-footbridge-stile. Cut off the left corner of the field, aiming for the middle of the left-hand hedge. Cross the stile here and walk straight across the long meadow, heading for the left of some farmhouses in the distance. After 600yds (549m), at the meeting of two hedges, cross a double stile and continue with a hedge to your left. Cross another double stile at the end of this field and keep following the hedge to your left.
