southcotswoldramblers.org.uk Poor Clares and views from Selsley Common 7 November 2007 . |
||
| On
Selsley Common we park carefully waiting for Ray to lead us off . |
|||
| And
then head off along the driveway of Bown Hill Equestrian Centre .. |
|||
| Breasting
the top of the hill we encounter a dramatic sky . |
|||
| The
autumn colours still very much in evidence as we look down into a small
valley . |
|||
| We
continue downhill looking across to Windsoredge and Nailsworth . |
|||
| Cottages
nestling down in the valley bottom . |
|||
| We
pass the Convent of poor Clares, Ray having told us some of its history
- VISIT THEIR
WEBSITE . |
|||
| And
head back uphill to South Woodchester . |
|||
| Where
we pause for coffee . |
|||
| We
spot some wallabies left behind by disgruntled Australian rugby
supporters as they fled home from France . |
|||
| Woodchester
Church basking in the late morning sunshine . |
|||
| We
start to climb back up the hill . |
|||
| With
views across to the Bowl . |
|||
| Doverow
Hill . |
|||
| And
Rodborough Fort . |
|||
| Then it's back across Selsley Common to the cars | |||

| 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. | |||
