6th November 2015 walking from Broughton Astley to Cosby circular route. app 5.5 miles.

Walk on 6th November 2015

Nine of us met in the Village Hall Car Park and made our way to Broughton Astley where we met three more intrepid walkers. 

 It was a pretty dismal day and we set off to walk to Cosby mainly using Cottage and Shuttleworth Lanes.

Little and large

 As usual, it was an enjoyable walk, although the weather was doing its best to dampen spirits. 

It was about 3½ miles to the centre of Cosby where we went into the cafe for coffee and cake. One of our walkers who we haven't seen for a while was already there to meet us so it was good to catch up with the news.

New life for our telephone box in Cosby

On the outskirts of Cosby we now have a replica of a pinfold with a modern twist, the added garden.  Hopefully, there will be a seat too.

After our break some of our walkers left the group to catch up with other more pressing things.

Back across the fields to Broughton – it was pretty muddy and we did have some cows to contend with in one field, however, they were very docile. 

Another great walk enjoyed by all.
