No chance of a group photo these days but will this do as a register of participants? |
Church of St John of Beverley, Whatton |
Setting off on the Smite Valley flatlands |
Coffee stop at the church of St Mary and All Saints, Hawksworth |
Thoroton's 14th century dovecote. Approximately 600 nest boxes were built into the walls and the young pigeons, called squabs, were eaten before they fledged at about six weeks old |
River Smite, not always this low as the last attempt at this walk was halted by its flooding |
St Mary's Church, Orston for lunch |
Originally created for Orston's entry in the 2015 Best Kept Village competition - not the same flowers of course |
The mighty Blackberry Hill just before Whatton - only a 5m climb but excellent views from the summit |
