August 10, 2022,Guiting Power and Quarries

This walk is in the deepest Cotswolds. From Naunton to Barton, through Guiting Power is an attractive route. The tracks north east out of Barton, then south to Naunton are not. It is an industrial area. The view from these tracks is of the quarry boundaries or the bare, flat, top of the Cotswolds.
