Thanks, it was a pleasure to write, and doing the research beforehand. Coincidentally the original Great Outdoors piece popped up as a Fecbook memory just this morning.
The Malvern Hills are indeed a wonderful place to walk. Of course, one option for the end to end is to start in Great Malvern and go ‘there and back again’. It’s a challenging walk! If any of your readers fancy something shorter, they might like 15 Short Walks on the Malvern Hills, published by Cicerone. (And written by me!)
John, I enjoyed this combo: your text, your real photos and the gorgeous tolkienish-landscape!!!. Great. Love Tolkien.

I didn’t know that.
Please forgive the shameless self-promotion!
Nothing to do with Tolkien but Longridge is the southernmost "Fell" in the UK I was told by a Lancastrian
That may be true. If not, Winter Hill, a few miles South, might be Winterfell…
