Walk: Wressle and Breighton
An easy walk pretty much on the flat around the East Yorkshire villages of Wressle and Breighton, and the countryside and fields between the two. Bubwith has the nearest facilities and the route takes walkers within view of the Breighton Aerodrome. The Route what3words for start point: ///camcorder.spoken.flamingo Start Point: Wressle railway station, Station Road Finish Point: Wressle railway station Distance: 6 Miles GPX Route Map walkshirewressleandbreightonDownload Walk Description Leave the station and turn right onto Station Road, keeping to the pavement on the left side. Walk through the village until you see a track off through an open field on the right. Walk along the track, even though the right of way technically crosses the field. Follow the track as it double bends and walk until a crossroads of tracks between some trees on the right. Carry straight on, and turn left, then right to follow the edge of the field. At the junction with the next field, carry straight on along the hedgerow and follow the track to meet Clay Lane in Breighton. Turn left and follow Clay Lane until the white building on the right - Ivy House Farm. Turn right and walk beyond the driveway onto the public footpath into the fields and towards the wood. Keep the wood on the left, then duck between the line of trees and the hedgerow for the next field, and follow the hedgerow until you meet more trees. Turn left, then immediately right, to be on a track for a very short time, before walking alongside a wood on the right. Go between the wood and a hedgerow on the left. Follow the path around the end of the wood to keep the trees on the right now. Keep to the edge of the field to meet a track, and turn right. Turn left at the corner along a hedgerow on the right, then turn right through a gap in the hedge. Aim for the track you can see in the far corner to the left of the isolated trees. Turn left on the track, and follow it. As it turns hard left, carry straight on to the end of the field. Look for the solo tree, and head towards the farm buildings in the distance. Join the farm track and don’t leave it, following it all the way to the T-junction with a public road. Turn right into Wressle, keeping left at the Y junction, then turning left to return to the railway station.
Walk: Hemingbrough and Newhay Circular
Just down the road from Selby, this walk is a short jaunt around Hemingbrough and alongside the River Ouse, starting and finishing at the village’s wonderful church. The Route What3Words reference: ///tiredness.structure.stores Start Point: St Mary the Virgin, Hemingbrough, Selby YO8 6QE Finish Point: St Mary the Virgin, Hemingbrough, Selby YO8 6QE Distance: 2 Miles GPX Route Map walkshirehemmingbroughandnewhaycircularDownload Walk Description Start by facing the St Mary the Virgin church in Hemingbrough, and turn left to walk along the way down Main Street. At the junction, turn right down Landing Lane and follow it as it turns to the right and then to the left. Take care here as the pavement ends and you’ll be walking on the narrow road, although the road is seldom busy. Follow it as it turns to the right and eventually comes to a stop. Turn right and follow the public footpath signs, and walk along the east bank of the River Ouse. Keep walking past a plant works on the right and after the river has turned to the left, watch out for a footpath on the right. Turn right down the footpath, and follow it to reach Newhay Lane. Turn right, and walk along the road, until it bends sharply to the left. Just afterwards, turn right on the hard crossing over the ditch, and then veer right to follow the footpath back to the church. Cross over the beck using the footbridge and then follow the path through the cemetery, past the church, back to Main Street.
