Countryside for All Walk: Clipsham Yew Tree Avenue

The fascinating yet tranquil Yew Tree Avenue at Clipsham is over 200 years old, consisting of over 130 clipped Yew Trees in all manner of unusual shapes.
Once the carriage driveway to Clipsham Hall, the Avenue, which costs nothing to visit, is now a pleasant place to sit and perhaps enjoy a picnic in the summer.
