This is a slightly longer walk, approx 5 miles. Again starting at the lay-by next to the stadium.
Retrace the steps of walk four skirting Birchley Wood and past Birchley Farm. Take the path to the right past Brinklow Quarry and on towards Brinklow until reaching Heath Lane. Here turn right along the lane where it eventually becomes a bridle path (ignoring the ACW path). You come to a point where you have to turn right. Shortly afterwards turn left and then right again to head back towards the stadium.

The weather has still been rubbish with lots of rain but the April 2018 walk did at least show signs of spring:

| Bluebells |
On another walk I did with my son that covered some of this walk, my son spotted an old car. We couldn't work out how it got there as the path is a bridleway.
