02/05/20 - Bluebells in Shrawley Woods

Distance - 4 Miles
Geocaches - 2

Weekend number 6 of lockdown - still a few classic walks in the area to rediscover.

If you are going to walk in Shrawley Woods, then the first weekend of May is the time to do it.

Bluebell Season.

Normally, we would park at the New Inn and pay their redeemable for a drink at the bar car parking fee. As they are unlikely to be open, we choose to start in Astley Burf.

A broad bridle path and some Severn Side Meadow walking brings us deep into the woods.

The bluebells and the wild garlic are superb this year.  Nature is one thing that is enjoying the lock down.

Abi showed her growing confidence in the water of Dick Brook and if she doesn't make it as a guide dog, she may become a professional model.  Not bad waiting for an 8 month old.
