The view from the northern end of Ridge Hill towards Ledbury in the east.

This 150ft tower can be seen from a very long way, such as from the Malvern hills to the east. It really is an impressive thing to see from directly below.

The road here is an ancient way that in built on the very top of a distinct ridge, with drops on either side. The top of the ridge is more or less the same width as a single track road, and gives fine views to the east, towards Much Marcle in the south and Ledbury more to the north.

Weston's Cider of Much Marcle is rightly famous for such gems as Old Rosie. Obviously all this cider has to come from somewhere, and the answer is that the cider apples are grown on orchards such as this one. The orchards are extensive and in a picturesque location on the slopes of Marcle Ridge.

As you will often find with the old villages in these parts, the village has a manor house with fine grounds, including a church. Putley Court is a fine example set amongst trees with Marcle Ridge as a backdrop.

Lovely little church just along from the Putley Court. Complete with it's old fish pond that would have been tended by the monks.

Great bench to crack out your sandwiches and flask with a view over orchards, Woolhope and as far as the Black Mountains on a clear day.

Route may get very muddy in wet weather
