[1] From St Mary Church proceed West along Fore Street then South West along Liskeard Road (for about 910 metres) passing the Museum on your right.
(A) The 15th century St Mary's Church is at the centre of the town. It is worth a visit to view the Celtic lantern cross in the churchyard and the ancient tombs of the Ayssheton and Willoughby families
(B) The Heritage Centre [Museum] is housed in an old chapel within the Town Cemetery. This building dates from the latter half of the 19c but has recently been refurbished.
Just before the Liskeard Road / A390 Roundabout take the sign-posted Public Footpath to the right. Look ahead for a stile (on the left) leading into a field. The Public Footpath crosses diagonally across the field to a gate in the field’s far right corner. From the gate continue along the Public Footpath (now a tarmac metalled lane) to the working farmyard of Pencrebar Farm. (Please pay attention to any displayed notices on entering the farmyard regarding farm, your and animal safety and hygiene matters such as asking walkers to use the provided boot dip and keep to the side of the lane).
[2 At the farmyard exit-gate the Public Footpath becomes an un-metalled rough stone lane (note the yellow arrowed Public Footpath to the right that provides the opportunity for a longer walk). Continue down the steep lane till just after a left hand bend it emerges onto the A390 at a Public Footpath signpost just to the East of Newbridge. Turn right and walk down the road. Cross Newbridge and, after crossing the A390 Road, go along the minor road to the left immediately after the bridge. About 65 metres later enter a car-park. A well-defined easy to follow footpath goes through a gate at the far side of the small car-park alongside the Lynher River for about 465 metres. Then through a gate out on to the road for about 150 metres before the river- side footpath continues for about another 520 metres before turning to the right, away from the river, alongside a stream, to emerge onto the road about 140 metres further on.
[3] Turn right and go along the road (for about 40 metres) to a gate on the left. From that gate (elevation 38 metres go up Cadsonbury Down to Cadsonbury Fort elevation 107 metres). Or, alternatively, continue on the level along the road back to the car-park. From the gate go up the Down, near a fence to your right, to another gate: then continue, less steeply upwards, along a defined track to an entrance into Cadsonbury Fort.
(C).Cadson Bury Hill Fort dates from the Iron Age. The oval shaped fort has dimensions of 275 metres by 170 metres. The rampart has a height of 2 metres on the inside. The outer height of the rampart is exagerated by the slope of the hill.
[4] After entering the Fort walk all the way around, see the views, etc., and exit back onto the path. Turn left and continue along the well-defined path, sometimes going quite steeply downhill to a stile, through woods, sometimes down flights of steps and out onto the road. Turn left, go along the road to the car-park. From the Car-park retrace the route back to St. Mary Church, Callington: via Newbridge, the A390, and the now quite steeply up-hill Public Footpath (a lane) through Pencrebar Farm, across a field, to Liskeard Road and Fore Street.
