Leek Wooton, 4th March 2026

16 members arrived for a 4.19 mile walk from The Anchor Inn, Leek Wootton.  We were once again blessed with beautiful weather on this day despite constant rain to the days prior.  Walked through church yard onto elevated path which overlooked views of Warwickshire Golf Course and Leek Wootton and Guy's Cliffe Country Park.  This led us on to a small section of the Centenary Way/Millennium Way through wooded area and deep mud.  Had lunch at The Anchor Inn on return which offered excellent food and excellent service.

Whitacre Heath, 22 February 2026

A 9.5 mile circular walk which began from The Swan in Whitacre Heath.  On this bright sunny morning, five of us followed the Centenary Way which took us through a very wet and muddy Lea Marston Country Park which in turn led to Kingsbury Water Park where we found a very convenient picnic bench for lunch.  From the water park, we followed the Heart of England Way through Kingsbury village on to and across a number of fields - very hard going due to the ankle deep mud.

Snitterfield, 12th November 2025

Despite waking up to torrential rain, 13 of us turned up to a 4.10 mile circular walk from the Snitterfield Arms.  Rain calmed down and we had a pleasant walk led by Bill which took in a small part or the Monarch's Way and to Welcombe Hills Country Park where we stopped briefly at the Obelisk for a coffee before returning to the Snitterfield Arms for a welcome drink and pub lunch where we were joined by a few other Heart of England Way members.
