Thursday February 2nd – Bristol Guided Walk

Richard Stride has kindly created a two hour walk around medieval Bristol for us. We will meet at the statue of Raja Ram Mohun Roy on College Green I.e. outside the Central Library at 10.00. 
The cost of the walk is £50 to be shared between us : please bring some cash!
There are toilets that can be accessed inside the council building I think.
I have not made any arrangements for lunch , however some of us might wish to wander to the Watershed afterwards. We can decide on the day. We would not be able to have a table for the group.

Sunday 12th February – Bristol Skyline Walk

Alan Morris is leading this 6 mile walk. Details of the walk can be found at HTTP://bssw.org.uk/

Thursday 16th February – Congresbury

Gill Carter is leading this 5-6 mile walk Grade C

We will park in the Gooseham Mead Car Park, Congresbury, Bristol BS49 5BX (grid ref ST 438639). This is accessed by turning left from the Main Road onto Kent Road just before the bridge over the river, and then right into Gooseham Mead and immediately right into the car park (free!). Should it be busy because of half term there is on street parking if you go up Kent Road.

We walk in a NE direction and then turn South to climb gently through King’s Wood. There is one very short sharp stretch. We then descend to the Yeo and return to Congresbury along the two rivers way.

There was some mud – if we don’t have too much rain in the interim it should be ok.

The walk is between 5 & 6 miles. Bring a packed lunch – if we walk too fast there are benches on the Millennium Green by the car park!

Saturday 25th February – Badminton

Andy and Lorna Renshaw will lead this 8 mile walk
