Doynton – 13.8.17
A 5.5 mile walk starting and ending in Doynton
This walk started from the car park of the sadly closed pub in Doynton and went through woods and fields before skirting Dyrham Park and heading back to Doynton. The steep hills were well worth the effort as, combined with glorious weather, the reward was far reaching views stretching as far as the Severn bridge.
Spotted! Llamas are becoming a common sight around the West Country
Clear views as far as Wales
A completely green pond covered entirely with duck weed
We passed several herds of cattle enjoying being lazy in the sunshine
If you could make jumpers out of thistle wool you wouldn’t go cold this winter
Deep in the woods was a wooden box – inside was a walkers ‘visitors book’
Lunch stop – including flying critters interested in sandwiches
Midsummer fields
The Second Severn Crossing seen from miles away
Lovely pictures. Looks as though you had good weather too. What a strange idea the walkers visitors book. I hope you all signed it. Thank you for the virtual hike.
