Stansted Forest Day Walk 8th November 2017


It was a bright and fresh day for Jennifer's walk around Stansted Forest. The Earls of Arundel had a hunting lodge there in medieval times but this was replaced with an Elizabethan house in the 17th century. The one now at Stansted is a replacement for the original which was destroyed by fire in 1900. Our lunch was taken at The Castle Inn in Rowlands Castle which was very good. The walk was nearer 9 than 8 miles, which may have included a small diversion... Additional photos are thanks to Marian and Jane.
