Annual Meeting
Monday 5 September.
Meet
Ashchurch Village Hall at 1.45 for 2.00pm
The walking group annual meeting is
being reinstated post pandemic.
Many things are different after the
pandemic; we need to review what we have done what we are doing and
where we want to go in the future – please attend.
There should also be tea, coffee
and cake.
Report on today’s Walkers AGM
On
Monday 5th September, the day the summer drought decided enough was
enough, members of the Walking group, in true rambler’s spirit, all
drove to Ashchurch Village Hall for the Annual AGM of the Walking Group.
Upon entering the healthy throng, I was met with the ambiguous question,
“Have you been a broad/abroad?” I answered to the latter!
This had been the first AGM since 2019 and it was good to see so many
faces both old and new. Chair Sylvia kicked off the meeting with her
report where she reviewed the events of the past couple of years. She
offered her thanks to those who had served on the committee and to those
who had responded to organise walks once the restrictions of the
pandemic were lifted. She also made an encouraging plea for more
walks to be offered and for more walk leaders to offer walks. This
became a recurring theme throughout the meeting.
Hugh reviewed the activities of the Walkers Group and Christine reviewed
those of the Strollers or, as Hugh calls them, “The Lame, the Lazy and
the Disinclined”.
Bob Mackintosh gave his treasurers report, highlighting the fact that
whilst the group had made a healthy contribution to the u3a funds, the
amount was less than previous years when the group was fully active
because the number of walks had reduced.
The Officers made it known they were all willing to stand again and so
we were spared the embarrassment of staring at our feet until someone
volunteered themselves. The existing committee were re-elected
unanimously with any hesitation. Thank you, committee!!!
This year’s ‘Walkers Christmas Lunch’ is planned for December 8th at the
Gupshill Manor. Numbers are required by the end of September!!
In AOB we were asked about our individual membership of the Nat Trust as
there are now problems for non-members using their carparks at some
sites.
Further discussion took place with regard to the description of our
walks. Was it better to just give the length rather than stress whether
it was energetic or easy etc. It was acknowledged that the short walks
offered by Andrea were a good idea and had initially proved popular. The
question was raised as to whether longer walks were off putting. The
absence of any specific conclusion seemed to suggest that if a variety
of walks are offered people will decide for themselves whether they are
up to a longer or shorter distance.
Leading walks was also discussed and Mike and Jenny came forward with an
excellent offer to co-lead walks with ‘new leader’s’. I hope this idea
proves a success as it seemed a positive step forward as well as being a
generous offer.
The formalities of the meeting were concluded by Sylvia who offered her
thanks to Hugh and Chris for putting together the Walks and Strolls
programme, especially during the uncertain times in the midst of the
pandemic.
She then gave a special thanks to that fountain of knowledge (both fact
and fiction), Stan Fagg, for his tireless work in keeping the website up
to date with the programme, reports and photos. A gift from the groups
was presented in recognition for his undiluted years of service.
Stan then entertained with a presentation of photos from the walks over
the past 12 months.
Finally, we all assembled around the tea and cake table where we gorged
ourselves on the delicious home-made offerings, contributed by various
members of the group. Thank you cake bakers!! What we all now need is a
good healthy walk to help burn off some of those extra calories.

Meet Bredons Norton Bus
shelter Grid 930391 GL20 7HB
Start 10am
Contact Mike and Jenny 01684
772194 the week before
Directions In Bredon take the B4080 towards Pershore and
Eckington. Take the 2nd road on the right (signposted Bredons Norton).
Carry on through village to traffic island, the bus shelter is to the
right. There is limited road side parking, mainly to the north of the
church.
Details We walk to Westmancote where we will have a
coffee stop, then walk the new circular John Clarke Memorial Walk. We then
go down to Kemerton and return to Bredons Norton on the lower path. Bring
your own picnic to eat after the walk in our garden if the weather is
suitable. About 500ft of ascent in total and two or three stiles.
Alternate Easy Walk 1 mile, 200ft ascent. Meet us at the
top of Westmancote (where the rough track starts) at 10.45 to
join us for our coffee stop and the John Clarke Memorial Walk. There is
very limited road side parking.
Our walk today was a special one. We were meeting Pamela (who used to join us) to walk along the newly inaugurated John Clarke Walk on Bredon Hill.
John was Pamela’s late husband and was the Kemerton Trust’s Conservation Advisor, who did much valuable work with insects and rare plants on the hill above Kemerton. The area surrounding the walk has arable plant areas, grassland, wildflower meadows and woodland.
The weather was kind to the 20 walkers today. The promised thunderstorms did not materialise, and we stayed warm and dry. Starting from Bredons Norton, we crossed the hill to the Westmancote track to join the John Clarke Walk and, after circling it, we dropped down to a lower path to cross the fields back to Mike and Jenny’s house where we picnicked in their splendid garden.
Thanks
to
Jenny and Mike for leading us today and for their hospitality. [Photos -

Tuesday 13 September Coombe Hill Nature Reserve
Meet Coombe Hill nature reserve
car park GL19 4AS Grid 888273 for 10.30 start
Contact Christine 01452
780460 the week before
Directions A38 south to Coombe Hill; turn right at
traffic lights immediately after Swan Inn. Very narrow metalled road; go
to the end of the road and park in the gravel car park.
Details We walk along the canal bank to the first
footbridge. Then either return on the opposite bank of the canal or a
longer loop across fields. We will have two leaders so the party can split
if desired to follow both routes. Could be muddy if wet.
Lunch The Swan Inn at Coombe Hill has a large car park
and offers lunches.
Eleven of us met at the Coombe Hill Nature Reserve car park on a mainly cloudy but warm day. We walked very slowly along the canal banks and the board walk to the Grundon hide. Due to the drought, the water was well down. On a previous visit it has been level with the board walk, but not today! However, this also meant that the path was dry and not churned up by horses' hooves. Sadly, the hide was closed as it was being re-painted (creosoted?) and so we did not have the opportunity to observe any wildlife from this lookout.
We then strolled back to the cars along the opposite bank and rested for some time on a unique dragon-fly shaped bench at the end of the canal. On our outward part of the stroll, we saw a family of three near grown cygnets and a single parent swan. On our return we disturbed them. They almost flew away, but then settled back onto the water. See photo attached. Most of us then retired to the adjacent [appropriately named!] Swan Inn for lunch and/or drinks.

Easy Pub lunch
Meet Eckington Wharf car park
WR10 3DD Grid 923422 9.45am for 10.00 start
Contact Rose 01684
301668 or 07971 672575 the week before
Directions North from Bredon on the B4080 Pershore
Road just before Eckington Bridge. Follow the brown and white tourist
signs.
Details The Eckington Circular walk, adding on a walk
round the top of the village to make the walk about 4.5 miles. This is a
mostly flat, easy walk starting off from Eckington Wharf Car
Park, along the side of the Avon to Strensham Lock, then returning
through the village of Eckington, over the railway bridge then around the
upper part of the village, pub lunch at The Bell, coming back through the
churchyard to the main road before returning to the Car Park. Please
notify when booking if you wish to have lunch in the pub.
This
was a pleasant, occasional sunny periods day as we, seventeen of us,
gathered by the Avon at Eckington Wharf. After her welcome,
Rose led us down river and under the main line railway bridge, after
which we spotted a grey heron, still ...among the tall rushes.
“How can I spend a peaceful morning fishing with all that chattering
on the far bank?” she must have thought, and gracefully took off for
calmer waters downstream.
Eventually, we reached our coffee stop at the
lock. As luck would have it, a boat arrived from Tewkesbury,
allowing our photographer of the day, Bob, to show us what locks are
there for.....a pity about the crosswind, which made it awkward for
the skipper to steer serenely through the gate.
Off we set, more at a stroll, up the lane and
into the village, where Rose led us on one of those 'keep me in
sight, or else!' routes, wending our way around 'the Eckington
nobody knows', until we found ourselves entering the rear end of St
Peter and St Paul's Churchyard. Along the wall were large
numbers of painted stones created by children to remind us of how
much we owe to all those in the health and care services during the
Covid pandemic.
Lunch was taken at the Bell Inn where, judging by
the high volume of chatter, a convivial time was had by all.
Many thanks to Rose for leading us so competently on her first walk
and, we hope, with more to come. (Thanks also to Noel for his
report and to Bob W for the photos - SF)

Contact Steve 01684 295438 or stevejanefisher@aol.com
the week before.
Directions A38 to Longford Roundabout. A40 towards
Highnam. A48 via Minsterworth and Westbury on Severn. Turn right
onto A4151 to Cinderford. Turn left onto B4226 passing Dylke Hospital to
Speech House. Car park is at the rear of the hotel.
Details A Fisher-Price Walk. The walk uses well made
(but bumpy) hard core paths through a section of the Forest of Dean. The
walk passes Speech House Lake and continues to Mallards Pike Lake for
coffee and toilets. Return is on similar paths, some following the old
railway track bed from Lydney to Coleford. Lunch has not been pre-booked,
but is a walk-in option at the hotel’s Orangery Restaurant, or people can
make their own arrangements.
The walk is generally flat, with no stiles and one or two gentle slopes.
On a warm dry sunny day 15 of us assembled at the Speech House Car Park in the Forest of Dean. Our leader's were the Fisher-Price duo of Steve and Calvyn. We were joined by Steve C and his wife Shirley. Steve requires a mobility scooter so Shirley had fortunately booked an all terrain Tramper from the hotel. Unfortunately it had broken down the day before so could not used. Steve gamely went ahead using his own scooter and managed to complete the 6 mile route. The walk used hard core tracks with no stiles. We walked down to Mallard's Pike ponds were a coffee stop was taken in the sunshine. Mallard's Pike is named after a Mr Mallard who lived in a Toll House on the Turnpike or Toll road nearby. We then walked back along the old Railway Line which ran from Lydney to Coleford. During the walk we had to keep a careful watch out for cyclists using the same tracks. We crossed the Central Bridge. Most of the Railway Lines were used to move minerals around the Forest but one line is still in operation. It is a 4.5 miles long and runs from Lydney Junction to Parkend and is a Preserved Railway mainly run by volunteers. We arrived back at the Speech House for a pleasant lunch in the garden at 12.30. Thanks to Steve and Calvyn for leading an enjoyable walk in the sunshine. (Thanks to Justin for his report and Margaret for the photos - SF)

Directions A438 from Tewkesbury, in 2.5 miles right turn
onto B4211 Upton, in approx. 4 miles turn left on A4104 Welland,
continue on A4104, then Left on A449 for 5 miles to British Camp, then
turn right on B4232 for 2miles to Wyche. Roadside parking near the Wyche
Inn.
Details From the Wyche Cutting, walk on east side of the
Malvern Hills, stopping for coffee at a disused quarry, then on to the
British Camp for public toilets. Returning over the tops, or a moderate
path, back to the Wyche Inn for lunch. No stiles and good paths.
Sixteen
folk began the walk from the Wyche Cutting, which was part of an
Iron Age salt route, a narrow pass through the Malvern Hills,
between the counties of Worcestershire and Herefordshire. In
ideal weather, we stopped in a disused quarry for our first coffee
stop, with scree as a backdrop.
We observed a dragonfly at rest, a dehydrated newt and several
Belted Galloways which were confined by an electric fence, bravely
tested by Noel. Some of the fencing was being removed by an
ingenious machine which wound and stored the wires around rollers.
These were loaded and guided by a couple of busy conservators.
This organisation was established in 1884 to preserve and protect
this wonderful area.
The next stop was at the British Camp toilets where our cyclist
broke ranks and bought himself an icecream, whilst we looked on
empty handed. However, returning over the hills, half the group
enjoyed another stop in ‘Little Switzerland’ underneath a lonely
pine, with lovely views in the distance.
Here, Noel narrated a short romantic story of Elgar’s love for
Alice, who he eventually married in 1889. It was so evocative that
you could almost hear Salut d’Amour among the trees behind us.
Then we descended, to some excellent, varied meals served by the
Wyche Inn.
Thank you to Betty and Graham for an enjoyable and well organised
walk, to Noel and to Phil for the photos. ( Many thanks to
Lesley for her report and to Jennie B for the photos - SF)

Meet Condicote Village Hall
GL54 1ES Grid SP153282
for 10am start
Contact Mike and Jenny 01684
772194 the week before
Directions B4077 from Teddington Hands towards
Stow. About 4 miles after Ford turn Left at minor cross roads
to Condicote and Hinchwick. Take 2nd road on the left, the new Village
Hall is on the right just as you enter the village. We can park in
the car park but can’t use the toilets as the Hall is used by a Nursery
School. There will be no suitable comfort stop during the first 1.5
miles.
Details We follow in the footsteps of the Romans along
Ryknild Street to Hinchwick Manor. Up a wooded valley then a short
climb out of the valley where we will have our picnic by the ruins of
Cutsdean Lodge. We return on field paths across the high wold and
along a track to Condicote. We can call at The Plough at Ford for
suitable refreshments on our way home. One stile.
16 members and 2 guests turned up at Condicote. After a hot summer and above average temperatures in September there was quite a nip in the air today which reminded us Autumn had begun although on this grey morning there were still signs that the sun was doing its best to oblige. We set off from the village hall led by Jenny at a good pace. heading west down the narrow lane before turning north west to join the Roman Ryknild Street, a lane lined with tall dense, rounded trees, which Jenny identified as hornbeam. After stopping to admire Hinchwick Manor we had a coffee break in pleasant woodland heading wnw on good paths to lunch in an open field next to apparently abandoned farm buildings, the former Cutsdean Lodge. Away from the group the silence was noticeable, no M5, no motor bikes, lawn mowers, or barking dogs, just the faint twitter of the birds as a lone swallow passed by. As we made a gentle climb to the nearby ridge, one could look around 360 degrees and not a building in sight, just large open skies, and the accompaniment of a kite,the Cotswolds at their best.The wheat harvest had already been safely gathered in, making the enormous fields appear even bigger. Refreshment at the Plough, Ford in bright sunshine rounded off the day nicely. Many thanks to Jenny and Mike for a lovely walk, new to most of us.

miles Easy (mostly flat) Pub Lunch
Meet The Anchor Inn 69 Main
Road, Kempsey. WR5 3NB 9:45 to choose meals for a 10:00 start.
Contact Andrea on 01684 294676 the week before.
Directions A half hour drive from Tewkesbury via the M5
coming off at the Worcester Junction 7 exit. Then follow the A4440 and the
A38 to Kempsey.
Details This is a joint walk with The Discovering
Britain Group. We will explore the more historical parts of Kempsey
including the site of the Bishops Palace where Edward 1st stayed in the
1200s. Cromwell was also known to be in Kempsey, and we will see Cobblers
Cottage. In 1649 it was used as a hospital for his wounded soldiers.
We hope to explore the parts of the Roman Road left unploughed.
21
walkers gathered at the Anchor Pub at Kempsey, many being members of
both the walking group and the Discovering Britain group, and there
were 4 members from Discovering Britain. The idea was to have a walk
around a place that also had an historic past and Kempsey more than
fulfils that criteria. It is the oldest village in Worcestershire
with a history that started around the Iron Age, when our ancestors
forded the Severn river on their way to and from British camp. In
the 1200s Kempsey played a part in the battle of Evesham and was
involved again in the Civil war in the 1600s. Cromwell used a local
cottage as a hospital for his wounded army. 3 members shared their
earlier research with the group. Rain was forecast but didn’t arrive
until we were safely under the yew trees at the church listening to
Robina.
Kempsey has 28 listed houses and a beautiful church, and has many
footpaths. It is a lovely place to visit and walk around. We all
enjoyed good food afterwards at the Anchor.
Walk led by Andrea and Shirley. (Thanks to Andrea for the
report, and to ever the dependable duo of Margaret and Terry for the

Directions From Tewkesbury A46 to Aston Cross.
Right on B4078 to join A435 towards Cheltenham. Gotherington is
third turn on the left. The Shutters is on the right near start of

Details We walk to Oxenton and back over Crane
Hill. Two short steepish climbs of about 100 ft each which we will
take slowly. 350ft total ascent in whole walk. Several
stiles. No toilets available at the Pub before the walk. Please look
at their menus online and give your order when you book the walk.
Ten
of us met on a pleasant autumn day with sunshine and clouds. We went
over the fields from Gotherington to Oxenton church where we had our
coffee stop. We then climbed up to the Gloucestershire Way above
Oxenton where we enjoyed the view before following it to Woolstone,
meeting a friendly donkey on the way. Noel gave a short talk about
the "Gloucestershire Poet" whose words appear on the Gloucestershire
Way signs. The church in Woolstone has a leaning tower which has
apparently been strengthened by experts from Pisa in Italy! A final
short walk across the fields in a rain shower was followed by a good
lunch at the Shutters Inn. Thanks to Mike and Jenny for a walk that
though short in length was balanced out by a significant climb,
great views and lots of interest. (Thanks to Hugh for the pictures

Contact Calvyn 01684
296684 the week before.
Directions Take the A38 north from Tewkesbury to a major
roundabout on the outskirts of Worcester. First left onto A4440 towards
Malvern. At next roundabout go left on A449 towards Malvern through
Powick. Take a right hand turning, signposted Collet’s Green and follow
this road (Old Malvern Road). Bear slightly right at the first junction
and continue along the edge of Collets Green village. Turn left at the
next junction ( Collet’s Green Road sign on right). Pub is approximately
300yards on the right-hand side.
Details A Fisher-Price walk. A circular walk, mainly
field walking with some smaller sections of lane/road walking. We walk to
Bastonford and then over Carey’s Book to St Peters Church, Powick. We
cross the main A449 and walk parallel to the River Teme and adjoining
flood meadows before turning away from the river via Ham lane and
returning to the 3 Nuns. Mostly flat with a couple of gentle slopes.
The
Autumn mists had burned off before the 23 of us arrived at the Three
Nuns, Collett's Green, to start our walk. Maybe due to Holy Orders,
the pub would close at 2pm, so Calvyn and Steve set us off at
9.45am. Travelling anticlockwise and crossing the A449 road, we were
told about the former Powick Hospital, aka lunatic asylum, where up
to 1000 residents could be housed and where controversial
experiments with LSD took place. The chimney and the remaining part
of the 150 year old hospital could be seen, not far from our route.
Walking mainly through fields bordered by trees starting to turn
golden, we eventually reached our coffee stop at St Peter's church.
We were shown the pits in the church tower made by Parliamentarian
soldiers' small cannon during the Civil War. Not far away was Powick
Bridge, the scene of a battle during that same war. We arrived back
at the hostelry in good time for our simple but nourishing fare, in
keeping with the pub's name.
Many thanks to Steve and Calvyn for leading us on their latest
Fisher-Price walk. (Thanks to Mike for his report, and to
