Thursday 28th June Harlington to Pulloxhill 7 miles led by Tony Price

Leaving the village hall on an overcast but humid morning, 11 of Toddington Ramblers finest walkers crossed Bury Orchard then walking along Barton Rd, before taking the track into the fields giving us views of Bunyans Oak and Sharpenhoe Clappers,
On through the plantation, through a field of cattle, coming out at Upper Sampshill farm.
Carrying on through Portobello farm which looked deserted, we continued on to the church yard at Pulloxhill where we stopped for a well earned coffee break. 

On our way again with the weather changing to hot and humid, we followed the track past Meadhook Farm.
With the leader to busy talking he missed our turn once again and had to double back on ourselves to get back onto the right track.
With that little mishap behind us we walk past Meadhook woods, now in full sunshine and very little shade we continued along the John Bunyan trail onto Grange Farm and the derelict house, crossing the busy road into Wateroff.
Crossing the little stream we continued up to the Bottoms walking along the road before turning into the fields taking us back into Harlington.
One last incline and we were crossing the playing fields back towards the village hall.
On what turned out to be a very hot and humid day, I think all walkers were grateful to be back for the end of the walk.    Regards   Anthony Price 

Track of walk, walked in clockwise direction
