The Shenington Round from Upton House, Upton House and GardensWalking route11.2 km

Mostly easy going on established footpaths and fields. Sections will be muddy after wet weather, especially along escarpment edge and boggy near Shenington village. There are gates and stiles. Dogs should be kept under close control.
