A word of warning. The walk descriptions are not detailed enough to guide you - please take a map. The batteries never run out, and you always have a signal. Oh, And don't take left or right as gospel!

Laughton - Gumley - S. Westerby -Saddington - Mowsley - Laughton

Barry led. With Gordon, Maureen, Eddie.  9.4 miles.  Misty, not too cold. 49 stiles.


A pause while we regroup, just after Debdale Grange . . .


The Grand Union Canal


you can just make out Saddington Reservoir from the churchyard.


Eddie breaks the 'world record' as he climbs the 30th stile of the walk.


Applause as a new record is set - it now stands at 49! 



We can climb stiles as well.




the sun almost came out.


There are not many recognisable views here. The mist lifted a bit as we left Laughton.

Is there a discipline in the forthcoming Olympics for climbing stiles Alison? {:) Dreadful dull weather we are having.

ha ha! I'll suggest it to Big Seb! We had to do something silly to keep us occupied, since we couldn't see much of the surroundings.

A distinctly autumnal looking walk. I like your stile!

A 'stilish' walk indeed.
