Horsley Castle 27th July 2014

After a day hiding from the Sun I decided it was time to get out, so I decided on this loal walk to avoid any car driving.

Weather still hot and sunny



Throute I planned should have taken me across Horsley Lodge golf course but I just could find the footpath and after crossing a few fairways I left the course and walked along Smalley Mill road to coxbech. This was no fun and if I d this again I need to find a different route.

The best part of the walk was up the hill from Coxbench to the remains of Horsley castle.


Horsley Castle - Not much of it left !



about 7.5 miles
