To see the autumn colours at Stourhead
The Leader
Trisha
Who Turned Up
Trisha, Trudy, Sue, Wendy, Ris, Tony H and David (with Brian, Pam and Beatrice joining us for lunch)
The Walk
It's that time of the year again, when the leaves turn to autumn shades of gold and red, and the gardens at Stourhead become a feast of colour. We piled into two cars and drove to Alfred's Tower, a couple of miles beyond the gardens. From there we walked through the woodland paths, surrounded by autumn colours. They were worth seeing but nothing compared to the scenery we later met within the gardens.
It was a pleasure to see Brian out again. He, Pat and Beatrice were waiting for us in the N T cafe within Stourhead.
After lunch, all ten of us walked through the gardens to enjoy the scenery. It was quite busy as this is also the school half term holiday and the weather was beautiful (see Trudy's pictures). Then the seven heardy walkers said good bye to our three lunch companions and went on up to the obelisk. From there we walked back to the car park at Alfred's Tower.
Lunch
No pub this week. We ate in the N T cafe.
