Parked at Clent Hills Car Park (massive free car park) and walked up to the summit, then down to the farms to the south and made a loop of it. Glorious sunshine and really picturesque views. Big wide well cleared paths (with thanks to the National Trust) so a very enjoyable amble. | jamiequackers | 09/08/2021 |
