Ann greets us on a sunny morning, although rain was forecast
We meet near the half timbered house
And set off through an old orchard
Crops swelling well
Ann explains how she spoke to the land owner
About the footpath
The gates are tied up again today
We overcome the obstacles
And reach some interesting old trees
Clear views to May Hill with its recognisable trees
Ladder-gate
On we go
Past more apples
What are they doing up there?
On the flood bank of the Severn
Opposite Minsterworth Church
Easier walking now
Still no rain
Farmer is busy
We continue
We don't feel like playing cricket or football!
Madam's End pond
On we go
Some can't resist ...
... the blackberries
... or plums
We head back
Past attractive gardens
And four rows of runner beans
All on sale
From the locals
