Description

Come along for a friendly chat as we take a stroll through the town.


After leaving the library, we'll head towards St Bede's Church before taking a quiet route through the streets and houses.


Our path will pop out into the fields at the back of Jarrow C of E Primary School.

Here we will walk across to Beaumont Terrace which will bring us to the beautiful West Park. As always, we will choose the quietest streets for our return route.
