Ightham Mote to Oldbury Hill

                                                            I started this week's walk from the medieval manor of Ightham Mote in Kent.




It was a beautiful day for a walk.

Yes I was tempted but didn't.


There were reflections everywhere.






Lots of primroses in flower today



 The walk ended back at the manor house which has a lovely cafe!

  4. Off topic, but I just read an account of someone walking the Circle Line, station to station. His intention was to do it in one try, but he became tired and left off and went back to finish the walk another day. I immediately thought of someone I know who could make the 15 mile walk easily.

  11. Nice post - so much of this post is familiar, even if I have never been there - generally Somersetish kind of feel.

  12. A beautiful walk ... and that is definitely one of our favorite kinds of places to end a good walk. I thought it had been snowy and cold over there -- but this post looks like Spring. And I am glad for that.

  14. A lovely place for a walk but I wonder if buildings with moats have issues with damp and moulds.
