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!

Road walk by Eyebrook Reservoir

 Wednesday 9th October, with Harry. Almost 6 miles.

Since we can unfortunately no longer walk round the reservoir track, we did a there-and-back walk along the road, which is not too busy.







Geddington to Kettering (Starbucks!).

 Monday 7th October 


6.5 miles.


With Norma, Kate and Maureen. From Geddington village hall, through Weekley Hall wood, to Starbucks this time, avoiding the busy road, and being able to use proper cups outside.

Some autumn yellows beginning to show up in the woodland.

A (re) visit to Little Dalby

 Tuesday 3rd October

Not really a walk, but we saw the church spire over the trees as we drove, and decided to find it.

Little Dalby is a tiny settlement, and the church is at the end of a very rough track. After driving part way up, we backtracked and parked at the point where the road deteriorates.

There is a grassy footpath up to the church, and lovely wide views over the vale of the River Eye.

When I checked this blog later I was surprised to find that I had been there, on a walk from Burton Lazars in 2013!

Great Cransley and Thorpe Malsor (Sept 16th)

 Monday 16th September with Norma and Maureen.

we were supposed to be following this walk, but added an unnecessary extra 2 miles, by setting off in the wrong direction.

Ho hum..- turned into a seven miler.

Anyway, here are some photos










and our route
