Dogs - If you bring a dog it must be on a lead and under control at all times, I use a harness with mine and I am happy to offer advice on buying one. You must be able to help your dog over stiles etc.

Occasionally a walk will be completely unsuitable for dogs and this will be in the walk description if that is the case.

Location Notes:

Parking The Community Centre now charges for parking. 1-2 Hours £1.00 2-3 Hours Parking £1.50 I'm not sure if the small car park on the left off Station Approach is now part of the pay and display, they have put a machine right next to it, but no extra signage. 1-2 Hours £1.00 2-3 Hours £1.50 And there is a big Pay and Display at The Ram's Head Inn which can be validated when the pub is open. 2 Hours £1.00 3 Hours £2.00 There is on road Parking nearby, check for restrictions. If paying for parking I'd suggest paying for up to 3hours to save worry from any potential delays during the walk.
