A leisurely walk from Knowle to Barston Gate House - then back.
This is basically a repeat of 17th March walk - but will take the loop counterclockwise.
(IF its been lovely and dry, an extra half mile for banana break at chuch).
Due to lingering flooding of a path to Barston Church this walk will - probably - turn us back before the church and be more of a linear there and back with a big loop at one end.
BUT we will have a good chance of ducks and geese - which better scurry.
And the paths are currently rich in daffodils.
Still pretty muddy out there.
Four stiles twice - so eight up and downs (nothing too rickety)
All is quiet lanes, fields, tracks - and the chance of a bit of house envy near Barston.
If folk want a snack / coffee afterwards the Red Lion in Knowle is a possible.
OR, Knowle has plenty of cafes.
Please park along both Queen Eleanors Drive and Minster Close in Knowle. Lets be courteous to locals and spread the cars out well ... there is plenty of room, no need to fill up a whole stretch near the turning to Jacobean Lane. Ta
