River walk 12th January 2022


The walk led by Marian and Linda was in glorious sunshine, although it was a bit low in the sky! After ordering our food in the Halfway Bridge Inn we walked through River Wood with the River Lod visible, but a long way down a steep bank. After walking through River, we headed east towards Pitshill, with some fine views to the north. After a welcome drinks break and rest we continued on towards Upperton before finding River Road to take us back to the Halfway Bridge Inn and a fine lunch.

Are we all ready to start?

Stile no 1

Luckily we had a wide path on which to stay safe

Fine views to the North

Pee-bo!

The frost remained all day, but so did the sun!

Lone daffodil, the first on our 2022 walks. Spring is just around the corner, although 20th March seems a long way away!

Daffodils on the right hand side!

The goats probably don't appreciate the view

We must get a snap of the goats.

Horses are more friendly.

Downhill is good.
