The Macmillan Way, Peter Titchmarsh - the 290 mile coast to coast path from Boston to Abbotsbury. The original Macmillan Way was developed to raise money for the Macmillan cancer relief charity and was opened as a fully signed and waymarked route in 1996. A lengthy extension, the Macmillan Way West, followed in 2001. The fully waymarked Macmillan Way and follows existing footpaths, bridleways and byways, and small stretches of minor roads when these are unavoidable. It runs across beautiful open fen country for its first thirty miles and for the rest of its journey it then follows, as near as possible, the course of the oolitic limestone belt, comprising stone known as 'Cotswold' in the area, but which runs in slightly varying form all the way from South Yorkshire to Dorset. It passes through a number of small towns and villages, the architectural features which have much in common. Many walkers have expressed great surprise at the many areas of unspoilt countryside that they have passed through while on the Way. Limited availability. Published January 03. |
