16 of us met at Priory jumped into 4 cars and drove to Lilley for a short scenic walk. 2 other members met us there. Bit grey and a few showers but a good walk with a welcoming real ale pub at the end of it. Luckily Don knew the carpark mentioned in the walk guide was no longer in use so we agreed to meet at the Silver Lion, which no longer exists as a pub! However as this is a small village and we had an OS map (definitely worth having even if the walk details on the leaflet look simple) and everyone managed to find their way to the start within a few minutes!
We eventually all decided we needed to put on our waterproofs, just so that the sun could decide to come out again.
An interesting chalk downland embankment
Enjoying the ambience of the Lilley Arms.
Sunday, however some of us only just managed to realise the digital alarm didn't go off early, it really was time to get up due to the clocks being changed. Others of us didn't manage to read the programme properly and turned up at the wrong place! However 13 people did manage to turn up at the correct place and time and do a good day walk.
