My Country Walks



Welcome to my new blog following my move to the Cotswolds in early 2018.

Previously living on the edge of Dartmoor I shared details of my walks on Dartmoor on my previous blog My Dartmoor Walks. As I explore this new area I will share details of the routes here.

Monday 25th May 2020 Farmcote

A walk with James and Charlie dog. Forecast to be a hot day so we started early. Out from Winchcombe past the castle initially  on the Warden's Way behind Sudeley Lodge and Parks Farm to Deadmanbury Gate. Down Campden Lane to Lynes Barn. Then returning on the Gloucestershire Way on the edge of Farmcote valley through Stancombe Wood to Winchcombe. 9 miles and 1100 feet ascent.

 Looking down over Winchcombe with the castle in the centre


Towards Parks Farm


Winchcombe, Langley Hill and the Malvern Hills in the distance

Zoomed in on Charlton Abbots and the little church in the centre - where I was on Friday


Disused tractor

The geese were not unfriendly

Cotswold cottages

They came to say Hello


The May blossom is now fading
