Eardisley circular walk via the Great Oak
A walk with Eardisley Ramblers on their second outing around the local footpaths of Eardisley, Herefordshire
Today we joined the Eardisley Ramblers group on their second adventure. A lovely crisp autumn day, the full walk was a little over six miles with the option to leave after about three on Park Lane, which leads to the back of the church (see map below). The walk took us to the Great Oak which is rumoured to have been mentioned in the Doomsday Book but probably not true as the tree is an estimated 800 - 900 years old. If you find yourself here give it a hug and get in touch with your ancestors.

Off we go
Looking back
Over fields
Down lanes
and over stiles
Getting over stiles for some was a rather undignified exercise
At the great oak
You can climb inside
Marvelling at the ancient one
Glorious day
No stile for a change
Heading towards Park Lane
The halfway point, goodbye to some
Seen better days
The end of Park Lane
Red Gates
Glorious Day
The views just get better
and better
Fields of clover
Back down lane to journeys end
