There are some wonderful walks in and around Woodford.
Here are some of them, tried and tested by our previous Footpath Warden, Joe Pitt.
Our current footpath warden is Kerry Simmonds, you can contact her at: kerrysimmonds@icloud.com
- Borough Hill Exhibition
- A Ramble to Charwelton Church and Back
- Charwelton and Back on The Jurassic Way Walk
- Eydon To Jacks Ford Walk
- Woodford Hill Walk
- West Farndon and The Jurassic Way Walk
- Cherry Tree Farm Walk
This is a pleasant circular walk of about one and a half hours but watch out for the stiles as some of them are high. The interesting remains of the medieval village can be seen as well as the church.
This walk should take around 90 minutes via Butterfly Lane or two hours via West Farndon. Start the walk in Lime Avenue, Eydon, near the Royal Oak.
A walk to explore some of Woodford’s railway heritage. One and a half hours or one hour if returning along the Eydon Road.
