Whatever the season, a country walk is a great way to get out and about.
Head for the Westbury-sub-Mendip Community Shop and pick up one of the Westbury Walks leaflets – they’re only 50p. All of the walks start and end at The Cross, so you can get started as soon as you leave the shop.
Each of the 20 walks is described in detail, with clear directions, maps and useful information plus an indication of how long each walk takes. They vary in length, some only a mile or two, others much longer, as you will see from the list below.
If you want to take supplies with you, the shop sells a variety of sandwiches, pies and drinks. Or you could go to The Westbury Inn for a post-walk cider.

Westbury Community Shop News
Run by the community for the community
Our Shop – The rain last month, followed by lots of sunshine has been good for the garden and we have now increased our vegetable corner. As well as onions, potatoes and peppers, from Lin’s Garden we now have mixed baby salad leaves, baby carrots, cucumbers, courgettes and rainbow chard.
Our fresh, locally sourced strawberries are proving very popular and are now particularly sweet and fragrant. Why not try them with our clotted cream?
Our Post Office – In addition to the usual postal services, we provide a comprehensive range of banking services. These include: cheque and cash deposits; cash withdrawals; and bill payments, all regardless of bank account. Going on holiday? We offer next day foreign exchange for all currencies and always carry a supply of Euros for immediate use.
Westbury Summer Gardens 2017 – Would you like to share a photo with your community of your beautiful summer garden? Or a plant you have grown that you are proud of? We would like to display photos of the ‘Gardens of Westbury’ in August. Please email them to westburysubmendipcommunityshop@gmail.com or give them to Liza in the shop before the beginning of August.
We look forward to seeing you in your shop
