Courting Hetty Pegler

Back to Guided Walks page

From the viewpoint we visit Hetty Pegler’s Tump off the Cotswold Way then head down to Frocester passing its large medieval barn and nearby Court before returning up to Coaley Peak. Lunch available after the walk in nearby Uley or Frocester. Or bring a picnic and enjoy the views from Coaley Peak.

The walk includes both steep downhill and later uphill footpath sections, some roads as well as stiles and possible muddy areas. Good strong footwear essential. Open in parts (exposed to wind and rain in bad weather) though route can be varied to more sheltered paths if conditions dictate.
