Another car park - another walk - this time with John leading
.
We leave Luckington
.
Heading down into the valley
..
Crossing the stream at the bottom over an old bridge
.
Don't go round the side says Brian, the mud isn't very deep!
.
We reach the village of Sopworth
.
Then head across the fields following a stream
.
And passing the springs which mark the source of the Avon
.
A yellow jacket to make him stand out in the photos? No but a good idea for the leader - and backmarker!
.
The rest of the group following on behind
.
Some a little bit further behind than others
.
But all coming together for coffee
.
The road takes us into Sherston
.
Where we find our usual path round the village diverted
..
But we soon pick up our route
.
And continue following the stream
.
Glancing over our shoulders at Sherston
.
As we make our way across fields
.
To the road
.
Which takes us via a ford
.
Into Brookend
.
Then along the river into Luckington
.
Past the church
.
Through the churchyard
.
And into the village
.
Where lunch is waiting
.

top 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 Led 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 Ramblers.
