The walk is approximately 11miles in total; but there are opportunities for people to join and leave the walk at various points, to suit all ages and energies!

The route is all on footpaths (and three short lengths of road), all very close to the ancient boundaries of the village. These paths will take us along Limb Brook, the River Sheaf, Old Hay Brook, Blacka Dike and part of Burbage Brook. We are fortunate to have fine woods, streams, historic sites of mills and forges, and open moorland on our boundaries and, of course, unsurpassed views of the surrounding countryside.

Lunchtime is on Burbage Moor. Bring your lunch and join us to hear Maureen Cope recounting the memories and stories of the people of Dore.

What a finer way to mark the old custom of beating the bounds, on a day in high summer? Come and join us, for the whole journey (about six hours), for a mile of two, or just lunchtime.
