Chester Heritage Festival - Walk on the Earl's Eye Meadows
Monday 27th June 2022 at 5pm
Led by Julie Savory of the Friends of the Meadows, the ¾ of a mile route followed along a footpath by the side of the River Dee and across parts of The Meadows.
The footpath is mainly good: it is a bit rough in places and the stretch across the middle of the Meadows is not suitable for people with mobility restrictions: it can be muddy in places, calling for suitable footwear.
