GERMAN walkers from Kidderminster’s twin town of Husum got into their stride during a tour of Wyre Forest.

Wyre Forest Stride and Stroll hosted members of the Husum Walking Group as part of a visit organised by the Kidderminster Husum Twining Association.

During their visit, they had a guided tour around Bewdley, which was led by Alan Scaplehorn, who is chairman of the Bewdley Historical Research Group.

They also enjoyed a tour of Kidderminster’s historic Town Hall with community champion Charles Talbot MBE as their guide before enjoying tea with the Mayor Nicky Gale in her parlour.

The visitors then went on a five mile circular walk of Eymore Wood along with a bluebell walk in Chaddesley Woods.

Their tour of Wyre Forest ended with a visit to the Museum of Carpet in Kidderminster before returning to Husum on Thursday (April 26).
