Pandemic Walks

4 Blokes Who Did Walks during the pandemic

Between March 2020 and August 2021 we endured various lockdowns and travel restrictions which limited our outings to short distances from home. At times pubs were closed so we lunched at home or took a picnic with bottled beer. Often pubs reduced the number of days each week that they opened or served food. We adapted, and on the bright side we learned much that was new about our home county of Cambridgeshire, especially the area between the Shelfords and the Essex border.


23rd September

Our records are fragmentary but we walked from Linton to Great Chesterford and back on September 23rd 2020.


29th September 

a very pleasant lunch at the Crown at Little Walden, followed by a 7-mile walk we had designed from the OS Explorer sheet 209 on footpaths first heading south towards Saffron Walden, then east across to the Harcamlow Way and north on a bridle path, then back via Chapel End hamlet and Ravenstock Farm. Red kites and a heron were seen.
