Jarrow Bridge walk (Walking for wellbeing)
Come along with us for a lovely walk and a chat with friends around Jarrow Hall.
We will follow quiet streets where possible as we head down to Jarrow Hall.
From here, we will cut through the park and down to the banks of the River Don. Keep an eye out; if you are lucky, you may see the occasional swan passing by!
We will continue to follow the river around the back of St Paul's Church and Monastery, and past the old Jarrow Bridge before turning back into the town.
