Calverton, Woodborough and Lambley, 19th January 2025

Val and Dave took eighteen members on a 9-mile walk down Bonner Lane to Springwater Golf Club and and then over hills to Woodborough for coffee near the church.  Then we walked over more hills to Lambley for a lunch stop near the school.  The return took us back over the same hills through Woodborough Park and by Fox Wood before dropping down to Calverton.

Thanks Terry for the photos.

The start next to Calverton Library.  Free parking but not for long
