Deer at Abberley

A clear sky

 A lovely early morning, cold but clear. Much footpath walking with the inevitable mud and occasional navigational error so didn't cover the distance I'd hoped to.

At Stanford Bridge, I went by a small building development and the plasterers allowed me to fill my water bottles at a temporary tap in one of the houses. They were impressed with the walk but obviously thought I was slightly mad.

On to Stanford on Teme whose church occupies a commanding position. I went in and made use of the free wifi there.

Stanford on Teme

The approach to Tenbury Wells was interesting. a footpath totally underwater. Fortunately, I was able to enter the town a different way.

I ate fish and chips on the bridge amongst rush hour traffic on the road out of Tenbury and walked until dusk looking for a pitch until I found a quiet churchyard at Whitton.
