We set off into the bright sunlight.
Walking deeper into the countryside.
Cows ahead and they have spotted us.
Buts whats this? A streak of white and brown comes racing out of the farm and across the fields to our rescue, clearing all the cows out of the way.
Its Basil, the wonder dog!! He keeps a steady eye on the cows until we are out of the field.
"We'll get you next time!!".
Walk leader Mark fills us in on the history of the Bardney Abbey.
Unfortunately these is nothing much left apart from some stones and humps in the ground (Location: near Abbey Farm, Bardney)
No were not lost! We have arrived at the Tupholme Abbey and reading its history.
At least you can see more of this one. It even has a nice picnic area around the back, so we stop for lunch and enjoy the view.
Oh look, a road disappearing into the distance!
We arrive at the River Witham. Sorry Matt. Your legs were deemed too scary for public viewing!
The Riverside, Southrey provide a much need break with some cool refreshments.
We continue into the woods.
Actually those woods look a bit spooky, lets stick to the field route instead.
Bardney in site and the end of our walk. Thanks to Mark for leading this walk.
