Shropshire Hills 2015 Day 3


Day 3 Saturday 22nd August 2015

I headed out early with the plan to make it all the way east to Wenlock Edge.  I was off, through fields, full of damp bracken and long grass.  I was about two thirds of the way there when my shorts and boots were so sodden and rubbing, and I got frustratedly lost in a small property where the path just seemed to peter out and there was no way forward other than pushing through a fence along a line of densely packed trees.




I abandoned that plan and turned to head to Cardington instead where I sat on a bench at the church to change into a dry pair of socks.  Then it was to the pub for a cider.

Then I headed north west to the north end of the Lawley.  I walked the Lawley (north to south), where I encountered a large cloud of flies at the summit.


I followed that by going over Caer Caradoc and down to the stream where I often stash a cider.  Luckily I had done just that that morning.


It was fish ‘n’ chips again at my usual place.  Anyone would think I am stuck in a rut.
