Cheddar joint trip with St. Albans Group

In December before the snow some of joined the St. Albans group for a trip to Cheddar.

Sorry this comes in 2 parts, operator error!


This is the Annex of Cheddar YHA Hostel which was rented just for us. (Now called "Escape To")

On Saturday we had an enormous meal brought by various members of the hostellers and entertainment provided by way of a murder mystery evening. We all through ourselves into our various parts with a gusto and some very appropriate costumes were also worn (Jo gets a special mention).


This is the Hood monument with Glastonbury Tor in the distance


Us walking back to the Hostel through Cheddar

Although grey, a good Somerset walk


Our lunch stop under a Yew in the churchyard in Cheddar



Glastonbury Canal close to Street

The murmeration is not guaranteed, and is sometimes far better than others, if you wish to go, I gather the best time is December and January (but you can always check on the internet). There were dozens of people, bird watchers and similar there enjoying the countryside, and wildlife. A beautiful area well worth visiting.
