Bengeo has historic buildings (including a Norman church), a thousand-year-old Common, beautiful rivers (one of them a rare chalk stream), its own little theatre and arts centre, two community gardens, and lovely surrounding countryside, with beautiful views.
Many of us regularly walk (and cycle) around and beyond Bengeo and, through the Love Bengeo Community Group website, and the Bengeo Trails Facebook Group, residents will share walking trails focused on all that’s fascinating about Bengeo.
To kick things off, the Bengeo Trails group have produced 4 walking trails based around some of the special views, green spaces, community facilities and Listed Buildings given additional protection through the Bengeo Neighbourhood Area Plan.
The first 3 trails are grouped together and can be walked individually, or as a circular trail. All 4 (listed below) are on the website and Facebook Group.
There are more trails in production, on varied aspects of Bengeo, and they’ll also be shared. If you’re on Facebook, please join the Bengeo Trails group, and if you’ve got a local trail you’ve enjoyed, please share it to the Facebook Group, or email it to info@lovebengeo.org.uk.
