Saturday 27th November Toddington Walk

This 5.25 mile walk had 7 walkers and was led by Tony Madeley

The forecast was for occasional showers of rain and sleet so we were not surprised that only 4 walkers from Toddington and 3 from Harlington arrived at the car park. We were particularly please to see Val who has not walked for a while. Again all the men were called Tony, getting to be a habit.

We started from Toddington Village Hall car park, crossed the green and walked down Conger Lane to cross the B530 near Cowbridge Farm. For this part of the walk the weather was dry, but cold and windy. The vines of Toddington vineyard looked pretty bare. We skirted the old sewage works before reaching the Fancott cross roads. The rain had now started which continued almost all the way back to the outskirts of Toddington. We turned right and walked up Sundon Road towards Toddington. We left the road and walked round the back of White Hart Farm, passing the fish ponds of Chalgrave Manor. We then walked past Chalgrave Manor Golf Club  and Chalgrave church before crossing the main road and walking down Chalgrave Road towards Tebworth. On passing College Farm we turned right onto a footpath leading back to Toddington. As the weather was poor no photos were taken on the walk

Track of walk, walked in clockwise direction.
