Pete's Walks- Bledlow and Radnage (page 2 of 4)
If you are considering walking this route yourself, please see my disclaimer. You may also like to see these notes about the maps and GPX files.
On eventually reaching the bottom of the slope, I turned left at a bridleway T-junction. This bridleway, headed for Radnage, ran between hedges that formed a 'green tunne' with only occasional glimpses of the fields either side. Like most of the paths, this bridleway was pretty muddy today. After half a mile or so the bridleway joined the tarmac drive from Daws Farm, and continued along it for a few hundred yards until it ended at a bend in a lane at Town End, one of the several hamlets in the scattered community of Radnage. I went straight on here for about a hundred yards before taking a footpath on the left. This crossed a drive and continued through a long meadow or paddock to reach a lane, with Radnage church on the other side.

I walked more or less straight on through the churchyard (the church is most unusual with its central tower) and then took a footpath starting on the far side of the churchyard. This went through a couple of meadows, then when I entered a third meadow the path forked and I took the left fork, going slightly uphill to reach a corner. I followed it uphill through a narrow area of scrub between trees either side. The path then passed through a small part of Yoesden Wood, before continuing between hedges and fences to reach the road through Bledlow Ridge.
