Monkland Return via Eardisland, Pembridge & Lyonshall

Sue had a workshop in Monkland with her quilting circle, so I grabbed a lift with the aim to walk back home, first along the river Arrow through Lawton Cross, Eardisland and Pembridge. Then weaving a path parallel to the A44 down to Lyonshall, before returning home mainly on the back roads due to the lack of footpaths.

Sunday Stroll, Almeley

A misty day, but generally dry apart from overnight dew, I selected a local walk to the neighbouring village and back. The route would follow a number of the local paths that I have walked many times already this year, with the exception of one small part along a connecting track I have never been on.

Weobley Return via Burton Hill

Sue had an appointment in Weobley and I planned to get a lift then walk back. I had picked a couple of walks out of the Weobley Walks book - combining the Ledgemoor, Hilltop, Garnstone woods and Shoals bank (#25) with Devereux Wootton farm Circular (#30), together with the return home from Eccles Green.
The weather was very foggy and this included Burton Hill.

BOC Walk, Runnymede & Windsor Great Park

This walk was arranged to go through the Runneymede park, see one of the magna carta memorials, then move into Windsor Great Park for a loop before returning back along the Thames Path.

BOC Walk - Prewalk, Thames Path, Runnymede

I had signed up for a BOC retirees walk whilst down in the South East. I was in the Chertsey C&C site overnight in the van, but was not sure of a parking site close to Runnymede that would take it, so I planned to walk up the Thames path from Chertsey bridge to Runnymede.
I was up early due to the time change from BST to GMT and caught the sun rise.
