Monthly Walk
Our walk on Saturday 10th January is a 10 mile circular one starting and ending at the Six Bells pub at Preston St Mary (CO10 9NG, What3words coordinates ///asserts.powering.sedative). Please park in the large car park at the rear of the pub. We will meet at 0930 and proceed taking in Hill Fm, Valley Fm, Great Hasting Wood, Park Fm, Castle Hill, High House Fm and back to the Six Bells at around 1400 even allowing for 2 refreshment breaks along the way.
As usual, we aim to maintain a not-too-demanding 2.5 mph (4 km/hr) however remember that on the day any weather is possible so strong shoes or preferably walking boots should be worn as the ground will be muddy or rough in places. Everyone is welcome, including well behaved dogs.
As usual, route maps can be requested from the web site. As we are beginning a new year, everyone is reminded that we walk every month on the second Saturday.
The group had a small residue of funds at the year end and will, again, donate the excess to local charities. More details next month.
Finally, we suggest that each walker carry a small first aid kit for minor problems and these are readily available from outlets like Boots.
