Our April walk starts at Walsall Arboretum which dates back to the late 19th century, with over 10,000 different species of trees and shrubs.
It’s generally easy and flat walking. There is one stile; it has a space for dogs to go through. There is a short stretch of road walking at the beginning of the walk. Bits of the walk may be muddy.
We’ll stop partway through for a half hour break at the historic Manor Arms pub, one of the very few pubs in the country with no bar counter. It is a three-room canal-side establishment, opened as a beerhouse in 1895 within an 18th-century building. The Manor Arms is unlikely to be serving food, so make sure you bring your packed lunch!
There is a pub garden for those who prefer to stay outside.
There may be sheep and lambs in adjacent fields so dogs will probably need to be on lead for at least some of the time.
Contact us for details on how to go to the start of the walk.
We are still collecting for Women’s Aid, and optional donations of £1 (or more) will be welcome – please bring cash, also for your mandatory £1 contribution to Boot Women’s admin costs.
