This 6 mile walk had 12 walkers and started from the George pub in
Maulden.
Leaving the car park we made our way up to and through the church,
then joining the track taking us towards Green End with views over Maulden &
surrounding countryside.
We followed one of the trails through Maulden Woods passing by Clayhill cottages and joining the Greensand Ridge.
We came to a memorial stone, which we were reliably informed by the leader was for Dick Turpin's horse (believe that if you will !)
On towards Limbersey Lane, where some road walking was required,
We then
turned to walk through Brickhill Pastures and in to King Wood where we stopped
for a well earned coffee break.
Suitably refreshed, we joined the trail leading us down to Kings Farm, now with
the farmhouse all boarded up and no cattle in the fields.
On past the
highlight of the day, a couple of donkeys in their small paddock.
Joining the
back streets of Maulden, we arrived back at the George for the end of a very
enjoyable walk,
On an overcast cast day with some warm sunshine at times,
along with a nice cooling breeze.
Some of the group then retired to the pub
for some well earned lunch & refreshments.
