NATURE lovers are invited to take in the east Durham scenery tomorrow.

A circular walk, which is free, sets off from the Raby Arms pub in Hart Village, Hartlepool, at 10am and should finish by 3pm.

Caine Spence, countryside officer with Hartlepool Borough Council, will lead the walk. He said: "It will pass through valleys, denes and fields of wheat and barley, and takes in part of the Hart to Haswell walkway and Durham coastal path."

People should wear sturdy footwear and take a packed lunch.
