Stinchcombe Hill - November 2003
Derek leads a good sized group of us on a sparking November morning.
Here he takes us round the edge of Stinchcombe Hill. The golfers can be seen on the skyline.
Lovely blue skies on Saturday after a horrible wet Friday and a wet Sunday to come! Amazing weather this year.
Visibility is so good we have to keep stopping to enjoy the views.
More looking needed.
Nibley Monument on the left and looking far south to the Mendip Hills beyond Bristol.
The two Severn Bridges clearly in view and Oldbury nuclear power station on the right.
The port of Berkeley on the Severn with the Forest of Dean beyond and a glimpse of the Welsh Mountains.
Derek (right) chats to Margaret and Karen, with May Hill visible in the distance.
A little further around the hill we obtain views of Cam Peak (centre) and to its left Cam Long Down, both on the Cotswold Way.
Later we descend to Stinchcombe Church and on the way admire the Autumnal colours here at Yercombe Lodge.
Absolutely stunning scenes - is this England?
We wend our way steeply back up the hill to our cars, and many of us enjoy an excellent pub lunch in Dursley afterwards.
