  • Walking Sunday 8th March

    Good afternnon, everyone,

    The forecast is looking good this Sunday so fingers crossed for sunshine and primroses!

    Lorraine is taking us to explore somewhere new this week starting from Brinton on the eastern side of Thornage.  Travelling along the Holt by-pass go straight on at the second roundabout towards Dereham.  Go through the village of Thornage, the road winds a bit so take care, then look for the next signpost for a right-hand turn  to Brinton.  Follow this road into the village and park at the side of the road along the church wall on your left.

    The post code for St Andrews Brinton is NR24 2QF.  A lot of the walk is on lanes and farm tracks but Lorraine has done a recce for us and has said there are some muddy patches but hopefully not as bad as Itteringham!, the dry weather this week should dry it out – and she saw primroses on the way!  The walk is approx 4 miles long.

    Do let me know if you can come.

    See you there

    Julia
