At the edge of the Black Country are some rather interesting sights, created by nature, industrial heritage and a combination of the two. Join Leo for this long but relatively flat day walk and see for yourself the effects that centuries of mining and brick making have had on the local landscape. 

During the day we will take in the sights of Himley clay pits, the rolling Staffordshire countryside, the Kingswinford Railway Walk and the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal before ending up at The Crooked House where the effects of subsidence have rather interesting effects to drinks placed on the bar. 

During the day we will have two stops at local pubs and cafes, meaning that you have the option of a pub lunch as an alternative to bringing your own food. Dogs on leads are welcome.
