16 August 2023 - Evening stroll
Richard Backwell is organising a walk for us again this year!!
He says:
"The Sutton Poyntz evening stroll will take place on Tuesday, September 12th at 1745 at the Knighton nature reserve car Park: GR 758888.
To get there, from the Warmwell Roundabout, drive through Warmwell and shortly after the Campsite and the outskirts of Crossways turn left on the road signposted West Stafford and Dorchester. The car park is on your left after a distance of about 1 mile and is about 50 metres before the pylon line crossing the road. It is a flattish, circular walk of about 3 miles through woods and round the Silver Lakes.
Suggest taking binoculars as there is a good vantage point with many birds on the lake.
Similar to last year, those who want to, will be eating after the walk in the Black Dog in Broadmayne.
Judith and I would be grateful if you could let us know if you will be joining us on the walk and also if you will be eating at the Black Dog afterwards. The present menus will be changing shortly so I shall be circulating the relevant menus before the end of August. The Black Dog need to know our choices of menu before September 7th so I would be grateful if menu orders could be sent to me by September 5th.
Best Wishes, Richard"
