22/05/25 - Rail Trail - Kidderminster to Hagley

Book-ended Bathams

The Wyre Valley Rail Trail comes to an end, with this two stage walk. There was really no point in ending at Blakedown. Hagley is only a couple of miles on and it provides the walk with some nice symmetry.

Bathams.

Permanently on at the King and Castle at the start of the walk.

A Bathams tied house at the King Arthur, a short distance from Hagley Station.

In between, its a decent enough walk that supplied few photos. Across the golf course of Gorst Hill, head west across farmland and through the spit of woodland at Mount Segg. Some forge pools around Blakedown and the Monarch's Way into Hagley.

Onto the Rail Trail Website to see where next..... or do I invent my own walk from Hagley to the next station along?
