Notes for the Kings Wood & Houghton House Circular Walk

GUIDANCE FOR WALKERS

The walk is clearly waymarked with the special Forest of Marston Vale circular waymarking; blue on public bridleways, yellow on public footpaths, and white on permissive footpaths. Please remember the Country Code. Most land within the Vale is private, without open public access, and provides the livelihood for many of our farmers. Care for the land in the Vale, and keep to the waymarked paths.

For easy access, and for your safety, stiles have been replaced wherever possible with either self-closing kissing gates or stiles and bridges have been provided with hand-rails. We hope you enjoy this walk.

Please leave nothing but footprints, take nothing but photographs and pleasant memories.

This guide was originally designed and produced by members of the Houghton Conquest Parish Paths Partnership Group in order to help & encourage others to enjoy the local countryside. Together with all improvement works to the footpath network in the parish, it has been funded entirely through the Parish Paths Partnership Scheme.

If anyone would like further information about walks or would like to assist with the care and maintenance of footpaths, please contact any member of the Parish Council.
