Wednesday 30th May Upper Wardington - Thorpe Mandeville 5.8 miles

Cancelled due to rain forecasted. Sorry! 

Hi All
I hope to see you on this walk. The weather is hopefully improving, If you would like to share transport contact me. The ramble starts between  10.15  and 10.30 a.m. Please let me know if you are planning to come.

It is beautiful countryside, Wide views. Undulating.  One or two steepish climbs. This walk is part of a battlefield trail. The battle was at Danes Moor near Edgcote Lodge farm. See link Battle of Edgcote. We have not done most of the walk before except for the bit near the battlefield. I suggest we end up at the excellent pub at Chipping Warden. The Griffin.
