*Walk 1 - Painswick Beacon and Cranham - IMPORTANT - amended instructions now available after path deletion - March 2007. Following a public inquiry a path at Sutton's Mill has been deleted from the definitive map and our walk has therefore been slightly rerouted.PRINT OUT the fully revised route (2007). (The deleted path runs from Suttons Mill at point E northwards to the road) Alternative start points: D, Near Cranham Church weekdays, SO 890124, or outside Cranham school SO 893125 on Sundays or E, Royal William pub CP SO 878126 ONLY if using pub. Please be aware that on Saturdays parking might be tricky at Cranham, as there could either be a wedding at the church or a fete at the school. *Walk 2 - Painswick and Edge - Diversions* - August 2007 - two short official diversions have come into effect and one confusing unofficial one. PRINT OUT the amended instructions (2007) here. Walks 3 - No update needed Walk 4 - Sudgrove and Miserden stepping stones - Good News! - June 2007 - After many years of asking by the RA, a smart new footbridge has now been installed alongside the stepping stones in the River Frome just after point B. These regularly get submerged in wet weather. There is no longer any need to divert onto the permissive path described in the book. See before and after pictures. Walks 5, 6, 7, 8 - No updates needed *Walk 9 - Minchinhampton - minor diversion* - Oct 2007 - page 19, 2nd column, 2nd line - Amend to read, "On reaching houses turn right through gateway (opposite Lower Peaches Farm) and follow enclosed track with wall on left until it bears right to gateway. Go through and after 50 yards near house turn left through gap in wall..." (See print out below) *Walk 10 - Stinchcombe - seasonal obstruction* - July 2006 - Stinchcombe - South of Southend Farm - Eddie O ' C reports that the scrubby area shown on the map is very brambly at the moment. This has now been reported to the County for clearance, but in the meantime cover up your legs! *Walk 11 - Cam Peak walk - seasonal obstruction - alternative route* at Coaley Peak - in a good (or bad) season, the route off the peak by the topograph occasionally gets overgrown with nettles and fern so we have devised another option for you. See print out below *Walk 14 - Beverston Castle - paragraph B has been revised in 2008 for easier route finding on cross field paths. See print out below PRINT OUT INSTRUCTIONS for amendments to walks 9, 10, 11 and 14.
