Ramblers

December Ramble

On a sunny December morning 10 ramblers walked along the board walk to Brancaster and back. After walking a short way out towards the gofl club ramblers enjoyed seeing the grey lag geese flying in before returning to the Jolly Sailor where we were joined by 5 more regular ramblers for lunch which included, for some, the popular Brancaster Mussels.

 

February Ramble is on Saturday 14th February.

 

The February Ramble starts and finishes at The Chequers Inn at Thompson.  You can park in their car park.   It is two and a half miles in length, and the route takes us over farmland and along quiet lanes and passes the site of the 14^th-century Thompson College.  It follows the tree-lined river Wissey for a short distance and the road back to the Pub shows us the Norfolk countryside at its best – farmed fields well studded with trees and hedges and a great church providing a focal point!

A knight on his charger carrying a chequered shield marks the drive to the lovely CHEQUERS INN which is tucked away behind a cottage along a lonely lane.  The owner, also the Head Chef, will welcome us for lunch after the walk, and a Menu is available so we can place our orders in advance by 7^th February.  

Please ring Carolyn or Trevor on 01760 755089 to book your presence on the walk and (if required) your lunch order.    You can also leave a message on Carolyn’s mobile: 07828 633015 or email Trevor on: trevor@ourgardenshed.co.uk
