Orwell, Harlton & Haslingfield Figure-of-Eight

Departure from Barrington (Cambridgeshire)

This is a lovely gentle walk taking in the Cambridgeshire villages of Harlton and Haslingfield in a figure-of-eight route which takes you through open farmland, a woodland path and Harlton clunch pit. As this is a figure-of-eight walk passing through Harlton clunch pit twice it can obviously be split into two separate shorter routes of similar mileage. It can also be completed in either clockwise or anti-clockwise direction.
