This 5 mile walk stated
from Harlington Village Hall car park at
10am
7 eager members joined me
on a very chilly crisp frosty morning. Well Done!
We walked across to Bury
Orchard and followed what my grandchildren call the ‘fairy walk’ to Lincoln Way
where we met Tony.R
We then headed down the
steep track, which was muddy in places, to Willow Farm and along Bottoms Road
branching off through a small copse where we all said how ‘clear’ the running
river was! It caused quite a laugh between us. Through the copse looking at the flowers and webs covered in frost

Even though it was very
chilly we managed to stop for coffee before crossing the new bridge
heading
towards Moleskin Hill
sign post.

| Looking back at the freezing fog over towards Sharpenhoe Clappers. |
We followed the path
through the woods, muddy in places, ducking under a fallen tree. Chatting and
enjoying each others company.
Crossing the field back
down towards Lower End avoiding the muddy field we retraced the path and found a
better track still crisp with ice in places.
Through the woods towards
Bury Orchard and then to the car park where we changed our boots and went to the
Harlington Christmas tree festival in St Mary’s
Church.

Lots of decorated Christmas
trees to guess what pantomime they were decorated to from children to
adults. There was
also beautiful craft stalls, a raffle, live music and we sat enjoying the
refreshments.
