Breamore

Here we go again then:- Wednesdays walk at Breamore Lots on the walk today all six of us. If the distance to travel put some of, shame because it was a very pleasant couple of hours. Our way led up past Breamore House though well tended lawns then upwards on a track that was well drained and for the fitter of us easy walking. Only one easily negotiated puddle all the way. It first led through woodland that I would say was initially planted because of the diversity of the trees, then through a Hazel spinney and out onto a meadow that again had been deliberately planted for the wildlife, lots of grasses wild flowers and brambles. The butterfly's and bees attested to the appreciation of this. We then came to the target of our wanderings a Miz Maze set in a wood on top of the hill. Shame we couldn't "have a go" as it was fenced of. On the other hand we could still be there!!! Coming back was easy, down hill all the way. I personally was glad of that. Any way some pic's of our endevours and hopefully an encouragement for more of you next time.
