The Monarch's Way near New House Farm

The Monarch's Way here heads off to Harvington Hall. The path follows the route taken by Charles II to escape to France following his Civil War defeat by Cromwell in the Battle of Worcester in 1651. This LDP certainly lives up to its name being 610 miles long! Link

Harvington Hall

This moated Elizabethan House was built in the 1580s by Humphrey Pakington. Many of the rooms still have their original Elizabethan wall-paintings and the Hall claims the finest series of priest-holes anywhere in the country. In 1696 the Hall passed to the Throckmortons of Coughton Court in Warwickshire, who owned it until 1923 when it was bought for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Birmingham, which restored it and now opens it to the public.
