Clent Hills, Hanbury hall & Himley park
Clent Hills
A 7.7km circular walk
in 3h40 with a visit of Clent's church (and a fail attempt to eat at the Vine Inn, though we would achieve that on the next day). It is the most popular hillwalking hill and even non-paying attraction in the Worcestershire area [1] and was indeed quite busy when we visited, despite storm Dennis passing by.
On the top of Walton hill.
The suburbs of Birmingham (probably Halesowen).
A British farm (high Hartcourt farm).
Cross dyke believed to be a defensive feature from ancient Britons against the romans.
According to the national trust, it is now thought this ditch is a hollow way, a well worn track, which passed alongside a long disappeared cattle inclosure.
Maybe the most iconic view from the Clent hills.
Elena and Julia posing by.
With Grelot.
Getting down from the Walton towards the "real" Clent Hills, with the Vine Inn on the right.
Running down the hills.
Clent's church, Saint Leonard.
Elena in the church garden.
Julia picking up flowers.
Peaceful atmosphere.
Inside, with a beautiful medieval chancel roof .
A nearby Clent brick-house.
Back to the hills.
Now in the authentic Clent ones.
With again benches awaiting.
The Four stones.
