Thorpe Salvin

Nineteen of us gathered in the Parish Oven car park in Thorpe Salvin for our leisurely Thursday ramble. We had two new starters in the group, Jean and Laura so welcome. It was a cold, gloomy start but the weather improved as the day wore on and despite all the rain yesterday, the route was relatively mud free. There were some interesting and lovely sights along the way. A Spitfire and a Thunderbird anti-aircraft rocket on a lawn in Lindrick (allegedly Ron Hull's house) and a swan carrying two cygnets on her back on the Chesterfield Canal. Magical. We all got back safely to the pub, despite a minor detour by the back markers. Refreshments were taken in the Parish Oven.
