Today is the first Thursday of the month so time for the U3A Bury St Edmunds Longer Walks Group to meet. This month it was Wendie's turn to lead the group walk.
This was her invite."I have chosen a route of about 10 miles around the lovely villages of Rede Somerton Stansfield and Hawkedon. We need to meet at 9.45am boots on and ready to go from Rede Village Hall at
The Green, Rede, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, IP29 4BE. What 3 Words unwanted.member.commuting.
This is a grassy area in front of what used to be the Plough pub - a very sorry state its in too , we just need to avoid blocking anyones driveway but there is plenty of space there and its very quiet.
Afterwards we can go to the White Horse at Whepsted which is just up the road, sadly the Plough is no longer functioning, and nor is the coffee shop at Depden . Please let me know if you are coming. Hope to see you next week."

We had a good turnout of nine walkers and we met in the mist by Rede Village Hall as planned.
This was our route. Wendie decided to miss out going through Hawkedon to avoid some muddy paths, but we still had a walk of just over 10 miles.
Here are a few of my photos.
Rede Village Hall used to be the school.
Thank-you Wendie for leading us round and to the others for the additional company.
