THE poetry of Elizabeth Barrett Browning has inspired a new Discovery Walk through the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The walk, which covers just under seven miles (11km), is entitled Hill and Valley, after one of her poems.
It starts at Colwall's railway station and heads uphill, crossing Jubilee Drive near the Kettle Sings cafe, and onto the ridge of the Malvern Hills.
The walk continues southwards along the spine of the hills, crossing the A449 by the Malvern Hills Hotel. It then skirts the reservoir, passes Clutter's Cave and loops back northward along the western flank of British Camp.
Crossing the A449 again, the walk takes the rambler across countryside past Oldcastle Farm and through Evendine, before returning to the starting point.
The walk covers many points of cultural, historical and literary interest, explained in the leaflet, which also has clear directions and a map.
The leaflet is available from local Tourist Information Centres or from the AONB office, Grange Road, Malvern.
