Home page Walks photos Archive 2006		southcotswoldramblers.org.uk Wotton-under-Edge 12 October 2006 Anne's midweek walk from Wotton is well attended. It is based on a walk from our new book, see pictures. .
		Here she outlines the walk in the crowded carpark, before setting off down the High Street and round the corner .
		To the Perry and Dawes Almshouses .
		Where we are welcome .
		To see the courtyard around which are the cottages and the chapel .
		We set off up the Cotswold Way .
		Then start to climb up through Coombe, pausing at a 1902 bench in remarkable condition .
		Now we ascend the strip lynchets .
		Smiling at the moment .
		Half way up with improving views .
		After walking through the woods we emerge onto Wotton Hill with its clump of trees .
		The plaque on the fence around the trees that were planted to commemorate Waterloo! .
		Ponies now live here .
		No you can't come on the walk .
		Time for elevenses .
		A view of the Rennishaw building, an old Textile mill, near Kingswood .
		And the developing home of its managing director at Swinhay (see earlier pictures) .
		We return via the crooked house (Park Mill Farm, nr Kingswood) with its rather unusual windows .
		And the outskirts of Kingswood village .
		It's uphill back to the centre of Wotton - another great walk. .

		As you can see, we thoroughly enjoy getting to know the South Cotswolds. We try to keep fit and succeed in having a good old chat. If you are interested in coming with us, see our walks programme and ring the leader if you have any questions about a particular walk. After two or three walks we hope you will then want to join the group as part of the national Ramblers' Association.
