Folks - some sad news. The Chequers Inn is temporarily closed whilst a new tenant is found.
Thanks for the notification. Will dine early / late at West Wycombe pub.
Not the route planned but a grand day out on the first winter walking this side of the summer.
#4 met on the platform at Saunderton. No mud and plenty of crunching underfoot on frozen earth and leaves. #Frost-covered-fields and crisp views across the valleys. #Low-sun cast long shadows across the woods and fields. An early break at St Botolph’s in Bradenham for a hot cup of tea (all do it yourself with a sum up machine left out for payment). And then no room in the three inns at West Wycombe. In the end the George and Dragon took pity on us and let’s us stay for some burgers and pie.
Insufficient time to complete the planned walk so headed for an educational trip to the Hellfire Caves and a steady pace along the ridge back to Saunderton through the gloaming. Most enjoyable walk and company. Crossed fingers that the Chequers Inn reopens.
