Let's Walk Home
Various Dates
The idea of ‘Let’s walk Home’ is to meet up, catch a bus or take a shared taxi to a nearby town and then walk home to Bishop’s Waltham. The guided walks are slightly longer as summer approaches.
We'd love you to join us if you enjoy walking and appreciate nature.
Please meet at St. George’s Square 10 minutes before departure. If we are using taxis, you must book in advance. Email letswalkhome@xmoor.com and find us on Facebook ‘Let's Walk Home’.

Bishop’s Waltham Photographic Society Annual Exhibition
The aim of the exhibition, now in its ninth year, is to showcase the talents of the members of BWPS by displaying photographs taken by them either as prints, panels (a set of images) and in digital image form.
Many visitors who walk into the exhibition with casual interest become genuinely engaged on seeing the Society’s work, and the exhibition provides an opportunity for members of the public to find information about BWPS, its ethos and its programme of events.
