About Lady Vale Walk
This is a picturesque all ability route, so everyone should be able to enjoy it including those who visit with wheelchairs or pushchairs.
The track follows the river upstream to Lady Vale Bridge, which takes it's name from The Chapel of Our Lady that stood beside the river during the 12th century.
