		Impatient eyes look down the road for last minute arrivals as Steve starts our walk from Uley .
		And we head initially across fields .
		And streams ..
		Ducking under fallen trees .
		To reach Owlpen Church .
		Where Rosemary has obtained the key to give us a rare opportunity to look inside .
		At the very ornate interior and magnificent stained glass windows .
		We continue on our way with views over Uley and the Bury .
		Not a happy chappie. We have driven away a couple of cows who had escaped to chat to him .
		Our path then takes us through Uley .
		And up the valley .
		The sun now breaking through the clouds .
		Eventually climbing through the woods .
		Maurice not sure which side of the post to go .
		As we reach the top of the hill at Cockadilly .
		Then it's over to Nympsfield, Mike showing a clean pair of heels .
		Three lovely ladies pausing for coffee on the green .
		A village where gardens are neatly kept .
		Another comfortable resting place outside the pub .
		We soon leave the village .
		Making our way across fields .
		And over the road .
		To Coaley Peak where we stop to admire the view over the vale .
		We then follow the Cotswold Way .
		As it crosses Frocester Hill .
		And heads down, and up .
To Uley Bury .
Where we soon head downhill again .
And back to Uley .

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.
