Overview

Meet at 10.30 at Leigh-on-Sea station (train times from Stratford to be notified nearer the day). This has always been one of our most popular walks and today we join Mary and Pauline for a bracing three-mile walk along the seafront into Southend. Toilets and refreshments en route and for those who would like to stay on for a late lunch in a local Southend restaurant, numbers will be taken at the commencement of the walk.

Leaders – Mary Richards and Pauline Macfarlane.
