We’ve been gallivanting
about in the Vale of Belvoir quite a bit recently, much to the delight of the
local innkeepers. This week’s photo of
Belvoir Castle is actually from a pre-walk (i.e. a test of a route) which a few
of us indulged in while a larger part of the group was down south on the South
Downs – and since the route proved largely successful apart from the accidental
bit of mass trespass (woops!), it’ll be on the programme in a month or two, so
more about that later.
The second of our ambles
around the castle was on a day too grey to warrant many photographs, but
nevertheless just about dry enough to be a good time to return to a route
already popular with both Leicestershire and Lincolnshire walking groups, which
is why we ran it as a combined walk. So,
a surprisingly large bunch of us headed up onto the Wolds, along the ridge,
down to Stathern for a pint and beside the canal all the way back to Redmile,
where we ducked into another pub which proved to have been used as a location
setting for Auf Wiedersehen Pet, of all things.
Haway, Andy, wor we gannin’ next?
