This 2.5 mile walk will take you around the wonderfully diverse art in Calne, taking in both the urban environment of the town centre and some of the green spaces along the Abberd Brook and Castlefields park.
2 hours free parking is available at the Church Street car park, also known as the Heritage Quarter car park. This is accessible from New Road. There is also 2 hours of free parking available at Sainsbury's.

As the path curves with the river, another path will join it from the right and flow towards Chaveywell bridge. You will pass the first example of the decorative kissing gates. Taking a short diversion to the left, away from Chaveywell bridge will provide more examples.
When you have finished observing the gates, cross Chaveywell bridge.
The entrance to the North Wilts Rivers Route near Chaveywell Bridge in Castlefields, is adorned with an entrance arch and kissing gates designed by Calne Artists‘ Group members Richard Cowdy and David Reeves.
