Ripley and Ockham Mill guided walk

A shorter walk to help us prepare for the hour going back...

  • Booking essential

This five mile guided walk with the Wey Navigations volunteers heads off from Ripley towards the towpath, passing Ockham Mill and Newark Priory before returning to Ripley. We will also pass the site of Newark Mill, a five-storied building that burnt to the ground in hours in December 1966.
