Brief description

"Public Access:

The Two Moors Way passes through both Ashcombe and Birchcleave Woods on public rights of way. There are also several permissive paths running through each woodland.

What to look out for:

There are some fine views along the Barle Valley, particularly from Birchcleave Wood. There are a range of interesting features in Ashcombe such as prominent, large white rocks and the remains of an old leat which used to supply the water to houses nearby. Simonsbath is a popular centre for starting walks such as along the Barle Valley to Cow Castle, which is featured in one of the National Park Authority's Golden Walks series of walks leaflets."
