This is walk 6 from "Country Walks in the Rugby Area" by Jim Watson.

Start on the main road from Rugby to Daventry, as it passes next to Braunston. The route takes you briefly along the canal, before heading west across fields to head to the farms which make up Sawbridge, past Willoughby House. After navigating around and over the infant river Leam, you head back east along a straight tracks, which heads over the canal, and then to the remains of Wolfhampcote. There is an intact (but closed) church, a few building remnants, and lots of lumps to indicate where the village was removed to make way for sheep (which are still there!). Heading back toward Braunston on an obvious road, you pass the less obvious remains of another village, Braunstonbury, before returning to the main road.... (by Jon Ingram)

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
