"10 Walks
in Brailes"
Jim Sergeant's 10 walks around the parish's public footpaths - Jim has very kindly allowed the site to reproduce his guide for our visitors. For ease of reproduction on the website, the guide is available in pdf format as two files: The ten walks as described in one file Walks, and the map to go with it: Map. The files will open in a new window. The Map file is large (>6MB) and will take a long time to download on dial-up connections. Unfortunately it has to be so large to include sufficient detail to be useful. Jim still has a number of the original print run available priced at £1 each - for his contact details please email admin@brailes-parish.org.uk Acrobat reader which is required to view these files will already be installed on most computers - if not it is available without charge from Acrobat reader

The guide is copyright © J. Sergeant 2000/2008 - Reproduction for other than personal use by any means is prohibited. Pdf conversion is copyright © WTD 2008
