WWM - Walks with Mum
This series will hopefully offer some circular walks with returns along the strawberry line, some may be possible to do as individuals but probably easier to make your own loop from them. Starting the series from the free car park behind the pub in Winscombe - N 51° 18.896 W 002° 49.915 and heading off into the fields.
The containers are just the cheap ones from Poundland but hopefully they are hidden in dry spots so should last but please feel free to change logs and let me know if any need checking. The walks are also all dog friendly and you may be lucky enough to spot us with the dog on the trail but do beware of muggles on the route, there can be lots of them.
If following round to quarry road you will be lucky enough to pass through the ‘Award Land’ the POW Toilets N 51° 19.524 W 002° 49.854 which still retain their smell. Two kilns near the Award Land were in use during the Second World War, run by a team of Italian prisoners of war and quarrymen.
Enjoy your walks and if you take any pictures I will try to upload them to the cache pages.
The Little Bridges series was started by Stanthews in 2009 to highlight small footbridges in remote parts of Wiltshire. Since then the series has been expanded by others all over the country and starting to spread fast, Damian from Winter Foxes has created and updates a list of cachers who has found 10 or more little bridges and can be found >here, if you would like to add to the series, please contact Stan >here and he will give you a number for your bridge, to qualify, the bridge must be a foot bridge too small for vehicles, please make sure your title exactly matches “Little Bridges # xx then name” including spaces so it will get picked up and added to Damian’s list.
