We head off into Standish Woods
Regrouping at a sharp left turn
Seen better days
Making our way down into the valley
The hills in front of us
No home should be without one
Some road walking
Past a thatched cottage
Looking back up to Standish Woods
And over to the Beacon
Nice with chips
Time for a stop
Yes it's that time of year
Crossing fields
With views of Frocester Hill, Downham Hill and Cam Long Down
Through a kissing gate installed after some pressure from SouthCots
Continuing along the valley
Can you eat them?
Starting our climb
Looking over to Vinegar Hill
Then taking in the wider views
Across the Severn Valley
Nearing the final climb
Another view across Vinegar Hill to the Severn
As we reach the top of the Beacon
Where we stop to look at the views
Back down the valley
Before heading back along the ridge
On the Cotswold Way to the start
