and continue ahead. At the far end go through a gap in a drystone wall
on the right, then half-left across a field corner to a second wall. Contin-
ue in the same direction until you come to Buckle Street. Across the road
the footpath maintains direction to reach a picnic area with a topograph
just above the A44 on Fish Hill. At this point you leave Gloucestershire and
briefly enter the county of Hereford and Worcester.
Turn left and descend through the picnic site to a car park. Keep ahead
to a toilet block where you bear right, go through a gap in a stone wall and
cross the A44 with care. Turn right along a tarmac road to pass a quarry,
continue beyond a house on a track, and when this ends a footpath takes
you into woodland. Emerge to meadowland gruffed with curious humps
and hollows, which may be explained by the fact that the site was used as
an Anglo-Saxon burial ground - in 1954 a number of human bones were
exposed by a mechanical digger. Soon after bear half-left through a shal-
low cleave, or dry valley, with
Broadway Tower
seen rising ahead (grid
ref: 114362). Shortly before reaching the tower, you will gain a first view
down to Broadway. Go through a gate and immediately turn right.
