The ancient church of St. Thomas the Apostle is unusually large for a parish church on the Caldicot and Wentloog Levels. The church has a full-immersion baptistry, unique medieval stone carvings and a fine Victorian pipe organ salvaged from two previous churches. On the ancient south porch is a mark indicating the flood level caused by the Bristol Channel flood, 1607.

Disappointing walk. Difficult to follow the route description right from the start. Walk is partly across furrowed fields deep in grass which are hard to cross. One field has grown maize so the route can't be followed and part is through some barns with no clear route.. A lot of the bridges and stiles are surrounded by brambles and stinging nettles and not well kept.
An easy circular walk starting and finishing in the village of Magor, Monmouthshire; taking in the village of Redwick, the Caldicot Levels and the Wales Coastal Path. Follows relatively quiet country lanes and farm tracks plus along the sea wall following the WCP. Very flat!
An exhilarating walk with some steep inclines and declines requiring sturdy footwear but there are fine views along the way.
Mostly rural paths with some stiles, kissing gates and steep climbs with fantastic views over Wentwood and surrounding countryside.

An exhilarating mostly level walk on hard surface paths around the reserve. Generally flat rural footpaths with stiles and gates to negotiate as you leave the reserve. Walkers are encouraged to find an alternative route between point 2 and 3 during the nesting season.
Lodge Hill Circular Walk in Caerleon. Mostly rural paths with some stiles and kissing gates. Some steep sections. Spectacular views from the high ground over the River Usk and the City of Newport. Look out for the distinct Lodge Hill Circular Walk Waymark Disc.
A circular walk through the rolling countryside of North Somerset with views of the Severn Estuary.
This is a pleasant two-mile walk that takes in a variety of hills and woods. There are still quite a few stiles to climb so not as accessible as some walks at the moment.
This is a circular walk from Pill.
