Follow first walk sections 1 to 7 from the station and then
21 Continue along the left branch of the churchyard path, leaving the church to the right. As you leave the churchyard, the stable block of Bletchley Park is on the right. Turn left through the cemetery to Whalley Drive and turn right along that road.
22 Walk for about half a mile to Sherwood Drive named after the former clerk to Bletchley UDC . Behind the houses on the right is a clump of trees on the site of a former Roman Villa. A plaque about one hundred and fifty yards to the right along Sherwood Drive commemorates the excavation of the villa.
23 At Sherwood Drive turn left to cross Whalley Drive and follow the footpath across the Leys. At the other side of the meadow continue straight on into Westminster Drive. Turn left and walk as far as Buckfast Avenue on the right Turn into Buckfast Avenue and opposite the green turn right down a paved path between two rows of houses to Melrose Avenue. To your left facing is the Melrose Shopping Centre and on the same side to your left is the Dolphin Public House. Facing on the right is Mellish Court (named after Labour Minister Bob Mellish), the tallest building in Milton Keynes much favoured by telephone companies and therefore bristling with aerials. We are near the site of Denbigh Hall after which the area is named.
24 Turn right along Melrose Avenue, cross Whalley Drive and walk straight on. Take the footpath to the left of the facing house at the end. Emerge on to Watling Street, originally a Roman Road but rebuilt by Telford for the coaching trade. An inscribed plaque can be found opposite on the south side of the bridge to mark the original end of the Euston railway line built by Robert Stephenson. Passengers detrained at this bridge to catch coaches to Rugby to continue the journey to Birmingham. The Denbigh Hall area was notorious at that time. The hill leading north on Watling Street was called Bunch Hill after a highwayman hung here in the 17 th. Century.
25 Take the left hand fork in the path just before the bridge to go north on the west side of Watling Street. Turn left in to Whaddon Way. Cross Whaddon Way and turn right along the other side of Denbigh Hall Drive or cross the grass. On the left hand side after 20 yards turn left onto path (Renfrew Way) leading into Sutherland Grove. Continue along the north side of Sutherland Grove until you reach Kincardine Drive. Turn right and then left on to the Redway just before the underpass. Turn left again at the next underpass. All the road names here are those of Scottish counties.
26 Continue across Kinross Drive on the Redway until you reach the top of Forfar Drive. The children's nature reserve created by Wellsmead School is on your right. For connoisseurs of road names you are now among English and Welsh counties. Go down the alleyway opposite. Turn right at the head of Hertford Place between the school playgrounds and continue down to Glamorgan Close. Crossing Middlesex drive take the small footpath at the end of Essex Close back to Whaddon Way.
27 Turn right and continue along Whaddon Way to the junction with Rickley Lane on the left. To complete Walk 2, go along Rickley Lane back to the War Memorial. To join walk 3 continue along Whaddon Way towards the shopping centre crossing Shenley road by the White Hart (now strangely transformed to a Hungry Horse). Walk 3 may be walked from here in reverse order.
