112: St Briavels, the Hudnalls and Hewelsfield (Wye Valley and Forest of Dean 2018)

WYE VALLEY AND FOREST OF DEAN WALK FEATURING ST BRIAVELS, OFFA’S DYKE PATH, THE HUDNALLS AND HEWELSFIELD

"St Briavels, the Hudnalls and Hewelsfield”
Filmed 28th August 2018
Post-production completed 17th May 2019

This film covers both the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean as I return to St Briavels, a lovely village previously seen briefly in one of my early films.

The walk includes another stretch of Offa’s Dyke Path as my route takes me through the delightfully secluded areas of the Hudnalls and St Briavels Common.

This was a real joy to shoot on the day, so hopefully the completed film is as enjoyable to watch as it was to walk and film.

Filmed in the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean in the county of Gloucestershire. Locations include St Briavels, Offa’s Dyke Path, the Hudnalls, St Briavels Common, Triangle and Hewelsfield. This is part of the series of films shot in 2018 celebrating 25 years of “The Solitary Rambler”.

Written, researched, directed, camera and sound, edited and music by Patrick Leach.

"The Solitary Rambler" is my series of amateur films of my journeys in the countryside accompanied by my own musical scores, which I compose and perform on my Yamaha keyboard.

Please note that, as with all the films I make, this is not actually intended to be an extensive guide to the area. This is a mini-movie of my personal journey along the walk, in which I often share some of my own personal stories.
