Hiking - Walking: Hadleigh to Kersey Wind Direction: Wind Stength: light Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: 6 Sea Temperature: Weather: cloudy :( Max Speed: Distance Covered: 7.83 miles (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
After a grumpy, wet, horrible day yesterday (when the highlight was going
to Tesco's but at least Ipswich beat Cardiff away :)!!!) we had to make the
effort to do something today !!! So even if it was cold and cloudy we set
off for Hadleigh to do a circular walk to Kersey, parking by the
Toppesfield bridge we set off just before lunch, camera in hand and rolls
in the rucksack :) After taking some pics of the weir we headed up
Constitution hill to Coram Farm over the A1071 Sudbury road and into
Kersey, a lovely medieval village of timber framed houses and thatched
roofs :) famous for it's 'Splash' (a ford in the middle of the street) We
had our lunch by the ford before taking a path by The Bell pub still
heading away from Hadleigh !!! It was a great path crossing open fields and
woods, through farms and past isolated cottages. Made it back to the River
Brett in Hadleigh and our van just before five. We were surprised at how
nice Hadleigh was ,river walks and old buildings which I hadn't seen before
considering I lived in the town for a while several years ago !!!
We finished the day at our friends Peter and Gill Cutts for tea and cake :)
So another top day out in the Suffolk countryside and can't wait for next
weekend :)
