(S/E) From The Red Lion car park, turn right on Hunningham Road - Main Street to cross the bridge over the River Leam. Pass the drive on your left and immediately after the Severn Trent booster station take a kissing gate left (marked with the distinctive Millennium Way waymarker).
(1) Go half left (West) diagonally across the field to take a kissing gate to the right of buildings by a power line pole into the field. Cross a narrow field with buildings left, to take second kissing gate and go ahead across the field centre to take third kissing gate.
Go across next field under power lines aiming for an exit gate, well to the right of Bridge Farm buildings in front of tree. Cross over the metal gated wooden bridge (here we leave the Millennium Way) and go with the hedge right to find a gap to the left of an isolated dilapidated building.
Take gap, ignoring the footpath right, and continue ahead with the hedge right to the corner kissing gate to cross a small concrete bridge. Follow the path directly ahead, gently uphill, across large field to reach the waymark at the farm track (you have a lovely view on your right of St. Michael's church).
(2) When you reach the waymark post turn right (North-East-East) onto the farm track and go downhill for 85 paces, passing the next waymarker post, continuing for a further 50 paces to turn right (just in front of green " Private - no public right of way" sign) and stay along the field edge with trees left, to take a ditch bridge and a metal gate left along a fenced path to take kissing gate into field.
Continue with the hedge right towards St Michael's church at Weston under Wetherley. Cross the Rugby Road and go left (North-West-West) following the road around to the right and, just before the bungalow, enter a track on your right (North), next to "Little Haven" to enter the footpath on the left, to go past power pole.
Stay along with the hedge left and go through the corner gap, staying ahead on a gently rising path to enter a large field. Stay with the hedge left to a wide corner gap with a waypost. Follow the waymarker, still on a rising path to cross young trees.
(3) Continue straight ahead to the hedge gap across a large field just to the left of a lone tree. Go through hedge gap to cross another set of young trees and then stay directly ahead across next field towards clump of trees to exit by a waymarked metal kissing gate.
Cross small wooden ditch bridge and stay ahead with the hedge left. Just before the corner of next field look out for a gap left ( with a damaged waymarker post in hedge). Go through the gap and past the hedge corner to take a diagonal path across a large field to exit via a waymarked metal kissing gate and awkward ditch to the road (Weston Lane).
(4) Turn right (South-East) on the road to walk past Waverley Lodge and 50 paces past the 50mph sign take waymarked path left (North-East-East) into the field and go with the hedge left. Exit at a corner across small wooden bridge and kissing gate and continue with the hedge left.
After 20 paces take two further metal gates over wooden ditch bridge, ignore the stile directly in front ( no entry ) and instead go right on a very narrow track between hedge and fence (this narrow path can be quite overgrown during the summer months).
Go past one red topped gas pole and eventually reach another red-topped gas post by a wide gap. Go through gap and bear right keeping trees right to reach a waypost. Go right over wooden ditch bridge into large field. Follow the line indicated by the yellow waymarker by going over the field centre, bearing slightly left, to reach a waypost and a stile in top left hand corner (if this field has been recently ploughed with no obvious path, just go left around the field edge to reach the same gate).
(5) At the corner go over the dog friendly stile and continue with a small stream and trees on your left. After a short way go left (South-East) over the stream via wooden bridge into a large field with a wooded area on the left.
Go straight ahead towards the corner of the wood walking up the field to reach the waymarker. Go right to pass a second waymarker to reach the corner of Wappenbury Wood. Then, at the corner of the wood, stay ahead across large field where the downhill path is usually well demarcated and you will have a nice view of the church at Weston under Wetherley over to the far right.
(6) On reaching the road (B4453), cross over the junction towards Wappenbury & Eathorpe. Stay along the road to reach Wappenbury Hall on your left and just opposite bear right down the cul-de-sac towards St John the Baptist's Church (St Anne's Church is close by!).
Just past Roman Camp Farm, reach the church then turn right (South-West) at the waypost to follow blue bridleway waymarker. Pass some small dwellings on your left then stay ahead on track keeping long laurel hedge on right to reach two metal gates.
(7) Take the left-hand gate to continue along the bridleway to walk slightly downhill and take gated bridge over River Leam. Go straight on to walk under power lines and take a metal gate to stay along bridleway walking parallel to overhead cables. Eventually you will reach a gate leading to the road (Main Street). Turn right (North-West) on the road to return to your starting point at The Red Lion for some well earned refreshment.(S/E)
