N=3 turned out on a w=cool-blustery day for this lovely walk. The ground was covered with fallen leaves but there were enough left on the trees to catch the light and create endless compositions of autumn colours throughout the walk. There were some muddy patches which we were able to skirt around but the paths were generally good and firm.
There is no obvious picnic spot on this walk so we went to the Pink and Lily for drinks and took them out to the garden and into a pod where we were able to discreetly eat our sandwiches. The weather felt cooler and windier when we set off again but we soon warmed up on the many uphill stretches which made us wonder if the walk should be graded 5 out of 10 rather than 4. We reached Saunderton just after the 15.57 had departed so went to the pub for tea. Very friendly service. We caught the 16.57 back to London.
