Elm Embers #wootton 2

We headed south on the canal towpath. On the opposite were some large trees that looked like silver birches but the colour of them suggested that that they could have been elms, perhaps the trees that the One Elm pub in Stratford is referring to. The canal bended round to the left so that we were now travelling south-east. After passing the marina, a footbridge allowed us to cross the canal and entered the field via a kissing gate. We then climbed north directly up the hill to the farm which hosts a café and restaurant. We followed the tarmacked path to the main road then turned left for a few paces. On the opposite side of the road was a wooden gate next to a stile. Here, we followed the grass track through the wood to an open field. We headed east along the trail through the middle of the field until it linked up with the adjacent wood on the left.
