Lavenham is celebrated for its
half-timbered houses, a reminder of the town's medieval prosperity
arising from the cloth trade.
Try this easy 1.5 mile
walk along the old railway line, and you'll see cowslips. They
grow up on the chalk exposed when the railway was built in
1865.
The walk takes you past Lavenham
Church, the ancient Lineage Wood and Lavenham Hall.
Declared as a Local Nature Reserve in 2003 this walk links up with
the
Valley Walk
and
Melford Walk to give a full day's walking in beautiful
west Suffolk.
