Welshampton to Ellesmere, Blakemere & Colemere A
6-7 mile circular walk from Welshampton to Ellesmere and back via
Blakemere and Colemere. Meet at Sherry Mill Hill at 09.30 to
car-share to Welshamption Village car park [down the lane behind the
school]. If you live nearer Welshampton meet there at 09.45. There will
be a coffee stop at Ellesmere. Please bring a packed lunch to eat near
Blakemere. Although there are few if any stiles, there may be some
cattle or sheep and therefore the walk may not be suitable for dogs.

Loggerheads Loop from Tyrley Locks Starting from Tyrley Locks at
13.30, we shall head towards Hales village through country roads and
newly diverted footpaths through fields. There are some livestock in
the fields before Hales. From Hales on towards Almington along country
roads before joining the Newcastle Way (a walking route from Market
Drayton to Mow Cop) towards Market Drayton. We cross over Coalbrook
and another bridge, then through crop fields before we reach
Market Drayton. To avoid steep steps up the aqueduct at the end of the
Newcastle Way we shall walk through Tern Fisheries before joining the
Shropshire Union Canal. Then the remaining part of the walk is
along the canal towpath returning to Tyrley Locks.
