Bury St. Edmunds Ramblers Walk - Great Finborough

This week's Tuesday walk was ideal for the continuing hot sunny weather... plenty of shade and walking beside water some of the time.... and ice creams at our 1/2 way stop!

See what I mean about the shade?

Some of the golf course was green... the greens! (And the tees).

Of course the fields were still as sun-baked as ever.

We had an initial drinks stop at the rather pretty OneHouse St. John the Baptist Church....

...which had a nice shady spot...

But this was where we had our official stop - and ice creams.

We met some lovely horses....

...and it was good to see water and water lilies in the Rattlesden River as we returned, before recrossing the Stowmarket Golf Course.

We got one last shady, leafy lane before arriving back in Gt. Finborough

A gentle morning's walk. Thanks Di and Elaine! I've not posted my usual map of the route as I paused my tracker at the rest stop and forgot to restart it. But you can still see more of my photos on Flickr.
