Overview

An interesting leisurely walk around the area via the Crescent Centre, Laurel Park, the nature reserve, woodlands and Maiden Erlegh Lake before visiting Redhatch Copse on the return to the start.  There are no stiles, some of the route will be on paved paths, the odd road to cross and a certain amount of local history imparted.  Hopefully the bluebells will be out to delight our eye.

Unfortunately, Jean has had an accident and is unable to lead this walk but rather than cancel Brian H has kindly volunteered to lead the walk
