This great walk will lead us firstly down to the banks of the Don via Jarrow Hall. We will follow the river around the back of St Paul's Monastery along a lovely quiet path through the trees. After ducking under the A19, we will cut through Jarrow Cemetery before rejoining the river in the Primrose Nature Reserve.
