Milford Common to Shugborough Hall

County: Stafford

Difficulty: Medium

Duration: Over 2 hours

Wheelchair Friendly: No

Starting off at Milford Common you cross over the road, then take the Canal path for quite a long way. There is a nice little shop for refreshments then, a bit further up, a nice pub where you can sit outside for lunch or another drink. All along there are lovely barges to see, with friendly owners and you can see them going through the locks; there are also some lovely houses along the opposite side. Eventually the walk will take you into the grounds of Shugborough Hall with all it's beauty and charm: Here the dog has to go on his lead for a little bit, but you can walk through the grounds where there are sheep & cows and one very big bull! Once you have gone through the grounds the dog can go off his lead again and the walk takes you through a forest leading out off Shugborough and eventually back to Milford Common. One very happy if a little tired dog and a happy owner!
