All
As Sue outlines her plan for her next walk Brian and Ann spring a surprise - Ann is going to lead
The Lamb Inn behind us
We set off up the valley with Lypiatt Park on the other side
The remains of an old cottage
Walking along the side of the valley
Fortunately we don't need to use that stile
Instead there is now a kissing gate taking us into mud
Guinea fowls eye us suspiciously from the top of a wall
Handy for telling the time when gardening
Cricketty Mill in the valley and Bisley starting to appear
As we head down to the valley bottom
The Toadsmoor stream below
And the highland ponies on the hillside
Water gushing downhill
The famous springs
Now in Bisley
With its stone cottages
Unusual shops
The high street
Leaving the village we can see the church across the field
As we follow a footpath, muddy in places
The sign for the footpath covered in lichen
Our path passes a stable yard
Over a broken stile
And on across fields
Now following a headland
Eventually back into Eastcombe
Where some thoughtful villagers have planted flowers on the village green.
