"Perfect Bank Holiday Saturday sunshine for our Lost Railway and Cycle Ferry Ride – & it couldn’t have been better! We cruised along the Blackwater Rail Trail, took in some lovely country roads & had a fun hop across the River Colne on the little cycle ferry. A big thank you to Penny for leading."

Yesterday we cycled past woods, old churches, villages and duck ponds.
From Ingatestone through ancient woodland to the ancient side by side churches of Willingdale back through the beautiful old village of Blackmore where there is the old priory church of St Lawrence with its wooden tower.

Also seen on our Hidden London walk yesterday, St George's Gardens near Micklenburgh Square. This beautiful secluded park was created from the burial grounds of two churches and the high walls surrounding it were originally to protect it from body snatchers.
