An enjoyable walk courtesy of JB. The good news is that all the pubs are still open: here, here, here, here, here and here. (Particularly gratifying given the walk authors emphasis on drinking establishments.)
This Sunday is Mothers Day and with a choice of four pubs for lunch there should be one able to accommodate us, BUT please bring an emergency snack just in case.

There are some great long views on this walk and much is out in the open across the large fields mentioned below, with less variety than for some walks. It's a shame therefore that the author did not point out some of the noteworthy features of the villages (apart from the pubs): churches in most of them have unusual features (e.g. medieval wall paintings in Croughton, spire and weird monument in Kings Sutton, tablets in Aynhoe), the fine Grammar School in Aynho, Anynho Park (grand 17th century house, Soane involved in design, gardens by Capability Brown) is private but one gets a very good view of the house from the road, handsome houses such as Souldern House and others."

Intend going.
Surprisingly just #3 of us on this #overcast Sunday walk; 2 others whom I had not seen since pre c19. A good day out with lunch at the Blackbird PH, Croughton.
