From The Beverley Arms hotel, and with St Mary’s Church straight in front of you, turn left and walk along the A164 North Bar Within. Go through the historic North Bar and cross over York Road. Continue down North Bar Without and then after the road turns into New Walk, turn right down Bleach Yard.
Cross over Eden Road, and take the footpath alleyway straight opposite. Cross over Orchard Close, continuing down the path alleyway. On Woodhall Way, turn left, and follow it until Scrubwood Lane on the right. Cross over and walk down Scrubwood Lane and then left onto Oak Tree Drive. Look for the hedgelined alleyway, and follow it until it reaches Lockwood Drive. Turn left and then right. Cross over Lockwood Road at the roundabout, and take Whitefields Close. Look to the left, and go between the houses onto the path. Cross over the track and turn right onto the car park access road.
At the junction with the A1035 Grange Way, turn right, then cross over using the traffic island. Turn right, then left onto the footpath over from the road. Follow this path along the field boundaries until you have to turn left onto Carr Road. As the lane turns left, take the track on the right and follow it until the farm. Turn right in front of the buildings and then left to walk alongside the railway. Turn right over the railway and then alongside North Bullock Drain. When you can, cross over the drain, follow it along the other side, and the cross back again.
Turn right in front of Arram Grange and turn right after crossing over Beverley and Barmston Drain. Follow the drain, but as the River Hull comes into view on the left side, veer off your path to walk alongside the Hull in the same direction. Walk underneath the A1035 and the footbridge, to continue to follow the River Hull. Turn right at the industrial units, cross over the drain, and turn left to eventually reach Grovehill Road.
Follow the road until the big junction, crossing over the A1174 to walk down Holme Church Lane. When Blucher Lane turns left, keep right down Holme Church Lane. Turn right down B1230 Flemingate.
