Park on Langford Road, in Langford, opposite Blackmoor. Walk west, turning right into Maysmead Lane. Carry straight on, keeping the wall to your left, behind which is an arboretum. After almost 1km at the end of the wall keep straight ahead, across a field to a gate in a hedge and turn left down Redshard Lane. Turn right onto Stock Lane, taking care, and after 65m turn left into Poole Farm’s drive. Go over a stile to the left of the gate ahead and continue diagonally left through the garden to a stile. Continue to another stile where you turn right and carry on around the perimeter of the mushroom farm, with the fence to your right. Eventually you will come to a stile, where you turn left in the field towards a gate and stile. Go straight over Jubilee Lane and take the footpath to Pudding Pie Lane. Turn right and then left into Broadoak Road, before turning left again into Rowan Way
