The Corvedale Three Castles Walk[1] is a waymarked recreational circular walk of about 11.5 miles (18.5 km) located in the Corvedale, Shropshire, England. The walk is classed as Easy and Heritage by the Long Distance Walkers Association.[2] The walk nominally starts (and ends) at the public car park opposite the Swan Inn in Aston Munslow, but other starting points are possible although parking is limited. The walk goes past Broncroft Castle (52°28′35″N 2°40′20″W / 52.476422°N 2.672107°W / 52.476422; -2.672107 (Broncroft Castle)), Corfham Castle (earthworks) (52°27′39″N 2°42′01″W / 52.460758°N 2.700383°W / 52.460758; -2.700383 (Corfham Castle)), and Corfton Castle (earthworks) (52°27′30″N 2°44′25″W / 52.458237°N 2.740205°W / 52.458237; -2.740205 (Corfton Castle)).
