		Leaving the lay-by at the Pavillion we head off under the road and railway . .
		Before taking the canal path .. .
		Then up a very narrow path towards Hyde . .
		We look down into the valley . .
		As we continue climbing . .
		A sight which encourages our leader, Jacky, to take a photo .. .
		A bit more climbing and we head along . .
		Besbury Common . .
		Stopping in Burleigh to talk and for quiet contemplation while everybody catches up . .
		Then it's out onto Minchinhampton Common . .
		Heading towards the Bear . .
		Followed by an ice cream stop - a print of this picture has been passed to Andy . .
		Our route then takes us downhill . .
		Over the railway . .
		To the canal . .
Where lunch is taken . .
Under the watchful eye of a rather large pike . .
We cross the river Frome . .
Before climbing the other side of the valley, across swollen streams . .
And walking along the top of the hill to Lypiatt . .
And Nether Lypiatt Manor or the Haunted House as it is known locally . .
	We walk down into Toadsmoor . .
	Skirting the side of the valley . .
	Past the lower lake . .
	Taking a rest in Bussage after climbing the very steep hill . .
	To finish the walk we go through Brownshill and down Station Banks . .
	Back to our starting point . .

	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.
