This is an easy Sunday afternoon walk round the picturesque village of Poppleton.

We will be walking round the green, down the snickets and spending time exploring the bottom of Church Lane, which includes a pond, horses, a park, a historic church and the tithe barn.

Organized by

Walks to the Pub

Walks to the Pub is a social group, that happens to also go on walks. The aim is for you to meet a range on new people, take in the sights of York and then go to a local pub or cafe for a chat.

Come on your own or with with friends. These are not guided tours and the not a race. All the walks are fun and easy. It is much about meeting new people as it is about walking.
