Pete's Walks - Hambleden, Marlow Common, Moorend Common (page 2 of 5)

I turned right along a lane for a few yards, then took a path on the other side. This ran between a fence on my left and a hedge. After a hundred yards or so it turned right, now between a hedge and a fence on my right. After a few hundred yards the path entered Pullingshill Wood where it went steeply uphill (this was much longer than I remembered) before levelling out and reaching a lane.

I turned left along the lane, which headed north with the wood on either side. On reaching a T-junction I went straight on along a bridleway that followed the western edge of the wooded Marlow Common. After a few hundred yards, by a large house on the left, the bridleway ran across some short grass just right of what was now a surfaced drive. At the end of the bridleway (and drive) I turned left, and followed Frieth Road for about a third of a mile, before turning right along a bridleway that followed the drive to Sunday Dean Farm. This dropped very steeply downhill into a valley, where I turned left along Munday Dean Lane.

Mundaydean Lane
At the end of Mundaydean Lane I continued straight on down a track. At its end I turned left and then immediately right, following a path just inside the edge of Shillingridge Wood. This was one of the muddiest paths I'd follow today.
