Gill Banks and the Flan Walk

Step by Step

Start at The Gill
Take the path that goes out of The Gill following the stream. Can't see the stream? Stand with your back towards the public toilets and start walking.
Follow this for about half a mile until you reach a gate that comes out on Old Hall Road

Here you have two choices:

1 .

Go through the gate (* bear in mind there is occasionally a bull in the field - see if the sign is on the gate. Continue at your own risk. *)
Follow the path keeping the wall on your right, you will come up to a gate with some trees by it
Go through the gate and then climb up the hill for a view over town
Take in the view and then make your way back down the same way, down to the road
