Thursday 15 June 2017 - An Evening Walk around Mobberley

The pictures should suffice to describe this pleasant two hour / eight kilometre stroll through lush Cheshire 'farm' (aka horse grazing) land from the Church Inn in Mobberley.

With Sue away, and only a day after I got round to circulating details, it was no surprise that only Andrew, who had kindly planned the route, and Richard and Jenny, who had known about the date for weeks, turned up.

Frisky bullocks and friendly horses occupied some of the lush fields, and all the footpaths were well signed.

This was a very pleasant way to start a short series of evening walks, details of the remainder of which are given below. All are welcome. They take place at a slow pace.
