Harby, Hose and Harby Hills, 2nd July 2023


Sue's 5½ mile walk took seventeen ramblers through Harby Village, across Waltham Lane and along tracks to the outskirts of Hose before turning southwest along the Midshires Way towards the Harby Hills.  After crossing and recrossing the dismantled railway line to Melton, we joined Waltham Lane for a short while before turning off and retracing our steps to Harby.

The walk was followed by our annual Lunch in the Garden at Brenda's home in Barnstone with tea and cakes provided by the Committee.  Thanks everyone.
