Sunday Walk: The Hidden Temples of Kearsley
Overview
Today's walk is aptly named as it takes in the Wat Sriratanaram Buddhist Temple created in 2016 at the former clubhouse of Manor Golf Club and the Shoenstatt Shrine as well as hopefully giving us the chance to feed fish on our route.
After leaving the park we'll make our way back up the hill and then cross over to walk along woodland paths, over Clifton Moss, to our first hidden treasure, The Wat Sriratanaram Buddhist Temple. We then cross back over the road to visit The Shoenstatt Shrine where we will have lunch. After that we work our way downhill and return to Clifton Country Park along the river.
Please Note: It can be muddy so please dress accordingly
