Keeping to the right hand edge of the fairway, walk west following waymark posts, In 250 metres turn right onto clearly defined downward path into Goldland Wood.  Follow path around to the left with hedge to right to reach a stile on right which leads into a small field.  Walk diagonally to another, clearly visible, stile and then a further stile/gate.  Cross both stiles into a large field: with hedge to left walk to next stile and gate, thence to a further stile and gate.  Cross stile and walk north west. with hedge to left initially, but gradually moving right to cross one stile and then very soon through a field gate and then another gate into a metalled farm yard, Maes y Felin Farm. Walk through the farmyard and onto driveway to reach a visible stile ahead.  Cross the stile and then the field, bearing slightly left, to reach a kissing gate which leads to the road. (Look for the St. Lythan's neolithic burial ground standing stones as you walk across the field).

Turn left at road and walk to a T-junction in 150 metres where you turn right, signposted Dyffryn Gardens. Walk for 800 metres: after passing North Lodge, the entrance to Dyffryn Gardens, look,. ignoring footpath sign on right immediately opposite North Lodge,. but in 120 metres, for a stile on right, also with a footpath sign. Cross the stile, walk up gentle rise aiming slightly to left of of Wenvoe T.V. transmitter mast, clearly seen, to reach a group of tall trees on the left and thence to a stile in left hand corner of field.  Cross the stile, turn right and follow the right hand hedge to a second stile/gate.  Cross stile and continue along the hedge on the right to yet another stile ahead and thence to yet another.  Over this stile too and pass an electricity pylon on your right walking towards the still visible T.V. transmitter.

Where the hedge turns right, carry on ahead into shallow wooded hollow arid thence up a slight rise to reach a hidden, small metal gate.  Do not go through this gate.  Turn right and go through a wooden gate onto a clearly defined path through Coed Nant Bran wood and in 500 metres reach a stile and gate.  Cross the stile and follow the hedge to the left to reach Lodge House farm ahead. (At the time of writing the public footpath is obstructed at the farm's perimeter fence: should this still be the case,. make your way to the left of the fenced barn to reach a tall metal gate on the right just beyond a second gap in the hedge).  Go through the metal gate onto the driveway (a public right of way) and walk south to the road.  Cross road and over stile. Walk ahead with hedge to right to a second stile, cross this and continue ahead to a metal gate in hedge ahead.  Turn left before the gate and walk with hedge to right to reach a lane via gate/stile exit from field.

In the lane turn left, walk along clear path through Wenvoe Wood for 350 metres to reach a stile which leads into a field with a bungalow to the right.  Continue ahead to a second stile, in right hand corner of field.  Cross stile and on to another stile leading into a small fir plantation.  Go through the plantation. passing an electricity line pole,. to reach a stile which leads to a field and thence to a track to Wallston.  At the track turn right, then immediately left onto a concealed path to the left of a stone wall by the house.  Follow the path with the wall to the right, pass rear of outbuildings on right before gradually descending to the entrance to Whitehall Quarry (disused) via stone steps.

Turn right, cross the visible stile and walk along the road (Wallston Road) for 800 metres back to St. Mary's Church.
