 Rushmere and the Grand Union Walk  22^nd January 2026

Ten ramblers met at the Brickhill /Stockgrove car park. We walked the north side of Rushmere country park then continuing down past Partridge hill and the Paper Mill before joining the Grand Union towpath. A young Heron seemed oblivious to us when we stopped at the Three Locks pub for a water break.

 After clambering over the lock gates we continued along the canal leaving when we reached Old Linslade, making our way to the Rushmere visitor centre for a coffee stop.

Once refreshed we continued to Stockgrove country park before crossing the road and followed an uphill path back to the car park. The walk was approximately 7miles
