We leave the Village Hall car park on foot or by car at 10am sharp to do a circuit of approximately one hour. You are advised, therefore, to get to the village hall by 9.55 am latest. Walk routes will not be announced beforehand but will be chosen according to the mud factor.
Dogs are welcome provided that they are put on a lead when requested. Walking boots (or wellies in wet weather) are recommended but not compulsory. Walking poles may also be beneficial. Some routes include stiles.
If you are leaving your car at the village hall to complete the walk, please park it on the road outside rather than in the car park.

Eric Payne
To write a eulogy to my father probably is unnecessary, as many of you will have known more about him and his accomplishments than I will ever know. He loved his village, its history and especially its people. ‘Home is where the heart is’ and this was definitely how Eric felt. He never wanted to be anywhere else! Now Eric has returned home to be laid to rest with his beloved wife Mabel, near to where there lives both began some 90 years ago.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for his or her companionship, care support and affection to Eric, something he cherished, and for your kind words of sympathy at his passing. He will be greatly missed.
