Turn left out of the car park, then right and left on a street with a ‘Sat Nav Error’ sign. It becomes a track, passing right of the Old Vicarage. As it bends left go straight ahead into a field. Go through a gate at the end, bear left in the next field then follow the right hand hedge through several fields. Switch sides at a stile and keep on in the same direction to a road.

Go straight across into a short track. When it opens out go left along a ridge with a fence on your left. Follow the ridge over several stiles then bear slightly right to its highest point. Descend to a small gate and turn right on a clear track. Pass an Access Land sign and continue to two fingerposts by a stile. Cross and go straight up a steep bank, soon easing. Continue straight ahead to a field gate and kissing gate below the steep upper slopes.

Go ahead a few paces then turn right above the bracken. Follow sheep trods across the slope, forking left to avoid losing height. Keep traversing round until you meet an obvious path going straight up the ridge. Follow this through the ramparts of the hill fort to the summit.

Descend past gnarled outcrops and then along a more level section to Three Fingers Rock, overlooking Church Stretton. Double back about 40yds (37m) to a metal gate. Follow a faint path down the grassy slope, swing left to a fence corner then continue along a clear green track until this zig-zags down to join a stony track.

Go left for 150yds (137m), then bear right into the gap between two small rounded hills. Find a metal gate in the fence running down the gap, go up the slope a few paces, then bear right on a level sheep trod, which becomes clearer as it curves around the hill. As the slope opens out go right to a metal gate with bridleway markers, then straight ahead up a steep path through bracken to a saddle.

Turn left over a stile and follow the fence along the ridge. Pass a defunct gate then bear left to the summit of Willstone Hill. Return to the fence then follow the path down a steeper section to a cluster of gates. Go through the leftmost of these, skirt round a marshy little dip, then gradually return to the left-hand fence.

Cross a stile in the corner and continue along the fence-line to North Hill Farm. Follow a concrete track downhill and continue down a tarmac lane. Go left at the next junction and soon re-enter Cardington.
