Wilden to Witley Trail
The Wilden to Witley Trail passes through some of Worcestershire's most beautiful countryside. The circular route features twelve churches spanning Norman to modern times, with Baroque architecture and Burne-Jones windows as specialty highlights. The trail is devised to be driven around but it is possible split the route into smaller sections and use the churches as the focus of circular walks.

The 12 churches on the Trail are very diverse, ranging from large to small, ancient to modern and artistic to plain. The Trail churches tell both stories of the 'great and good' and 'ordinary, everyday' people. For further information on the trail contact (01299) 878224 or pamela.craven@btopenworld.com.
