Trail Notes

The trail is free and takes about an hour to complete.  It doesn’t need to be done all in one go. It is a pavement walk of about one mile and the terrain is suitable for buggies.

The trail can be downloaded from www.overtontrail.co.uk from 19th July 2024.

 It is recommended for the young and the young at heart!

There are two versions, V1 for printing and V2 for downloading to a mobile device which is interactive as long as you open it in Adobe Acrobat Reader. 

If you don’t have access to a colour printer, copies of the trail can be obtained from john@drjohnmitchell.co.uk at a cost of £1.50 from Wessex Business Solutions in the High Street.

The answers to the last 5 questions are found in St. Mary’s church, Overton (RG25 3HF) which is open daily from 9.00 a.m. until 5.00 p.m. The answers to all the other questions are outside, around the village and are “permanent” so the trail can be done any time.

Once completed send your answers to the three questions on the final page to info@overtontrail.co.uk 

There will be prizes for the first 3 correct answers drawn out of a hat on 27th August 2024 

If you have any queries please email info@overtontrail.co.uk
