This is something of a historic occasion: the first walk we have done which is not from a walk book.
The walk begins from the pub in the hamlet of Stone Allerton. A short way along the road towards Wedmore and a path heads northwest towards Axbridge and Cheddar. A short distance across fields and you arrive at the top of Brinscombe Hill with splendid views towards Cheddar across the Somerset levels.
We then descended the hill and followed the River Axe east for a while before turning left and left again to head west along the Cheddar Yeo.
A further left turn brought us back to Brinscombe and walking uphill through a series of lanes returned us to Stone Allerton.
About 5 miles in all.
Rating: four stars.
