Glympton (Church Walk)

We parked in the lay-by along the A44 and got myself and the dogs ready. We headed towards a small gate with a footpath sign and got a little way in before we saw a steep hill to walk down covered in ice and snow so we decided not to and turned back towards the car because my mum spotted a another footpath on the other side of the road so we followed that one instead after crossing the busy road we saw a long wide track covered in snow with trees on either side. We let the dogs off their leads and followed the track to a field and a couple of barns with lots of logs piled up we carried on pass and came to a gate which lead on to a road and on the other side of the road we saw a building with a gate going through the middle. We crossed the road and went through another gate under the middle of the building on the gate we saw a sign saying

FOOTPATH ONLY 

ST. MARYS CHURCH 

GLYMPTON 

We walked down this long tarmac drive of Glympton Park looking round enjoying the view and spotting how many CCTV cameras there are (Lost count in the end) we found the church and carried on round past the church and followed the tarmac and found a

wooden staircase which we followed and walked a long a verge and into another wide open field. We then decided it was too cold and turned back after we crossed the road into the track and the little dog Lucy decided to go through the fence and loose her coat so I had to put my coat over the barbed wire and I climbed over to retrieve it and then carried on back to the car when we got to the A44 we had a bit of a problem trying to see round the corner so if you do this walk from the A44 be careful crossing.
