Easter Sunday, 1st April 2018
This is an extended version of a walk that our walking group sometimes do. We've not done it (the shorter version) for a while so I thought it made a fine candidate for a local meander and packed my small rucksack with a snack and flask to "make a day of it", so to speak. I knew the perfect spot, complete with giant tree branch bench, to sit and enjoy just being out in the fresh air.
I was suprised to discover that, despite being predominantly around field margins, it was a reasonably un-muddy walk, especially considering the rain we've had recently.
