Description:

Leaving Bredon, we soon enter woodland leading to Kemerton Lake Nature Reserve where we have the opportunity to visit a hide and will be met by a local expert and member of Kemerton Conservation Trust who will tell us about the origins and special features of the Reserve.  We leave the Reserve to walk through meadows managed with nature in mind and onward via landscaped lakes to Robins Mill near Overbury, where there were once several cloth mills powered by the stream descending from Bredon Hill.  Returning to Kemerton we pass by the John Moore Nature Reserve and walk through the conservation orchard run by Kemerton Estate and the hamlet of Lower Westmancote.
