Denys is filming today - Roma our leader is ready to go | ||
Passing some large fungi | ||
We start up the Wrekin | ||
Good views every now and then | ||
Through the ancient Hillfort | ||
Steeply up | ||
For a photo call on the 1700 foot odd summit |
||
We head down the other side | ||
The plot thickens | ||
Wait for us | ||
The Long Mynd we suspect | ||
More cameras appear | ||
Now the tricky descent | ||
We've done the hard bit | ||
We haven't! | ||
Some nice properties as we make for lunch | ||
In a churchyard | ||
The longer group are ready to go | ||
While the others take over the yew tree | ||
And we head for a quick half! | ||
Continuing | ||
Hill spotting | ||
Down steps | ||
Along the ropewalk | ||
More fungi | ||
We reach the outskirts of Ironbridge | ||
Past the protected smelting furnace | ||
How are we doing for time? | ||
Come on Bruno, we have the longer walk to do | ||
Steeply up to the Rotunda | ||
At the top Olivia is met by one of her favourites | ||
Where is this Rotunda we wunder? | ||
Lots of carvings | ||
With inscriptions | ||
Fascinating | ||
Nothing like it | ||
And they call this art? | ||
Just one more photo | ||
Hey - there's the Iron Bridge | ||
And we have reached the Rotunda | ||
Smile please | ||
What goes up must come down | ||
And down... | ||
To the Iron Bridge, and coffee | ||
And another day's successful (?) filming | ||
