#7 on this lovely #sunny walk we took the lower route at first which dud get very muddy forcing us to switch to the higher route which was drier with wonderful views. Birdsong filled the day and snow drops abound The Blechingly pub served good roasts. We walked through old byways and drovers routes. We all got the train after 4pm with no tea!
