Daneway to Pinbury Park - November 2003
Olivia is our leader for a walk through Pinbury Park. No sun today after two gloriously sunny walks earlier this month, but no rain either and lovely Autumn colours to brighten up the scene.
There is a chill easterly breeze, so we are glad to warm up by climbing steeply up to Sapperton.
The path from Sapperton towards Pinbury is at its Autumn best.

Pinbury Park comes into view. This was once the home of the poet laureate, John Masefield.

Near Tunley we turn left up steps and follow the footpath through a garden.
