Monday 1st September. Ticknall to Foremark, led by Christine
Our first longer walk started with 4 of us at the WI garden seat in Market street. As we all had already walked to the starting point we inadvertently added another mile to the walk!
We walked along the Tamworth road and walked through the golf course and then taking a footpath through Willesley Woods to Oakthorpe. We then joined part of the Ivanhoe Way before turning towards Moira Furnace for a brief rest and refreshment. We then followed the National Forest Way into Hicks Lodge and back into Ashby - a total of 11 miles.
All of us were able to complete the U3A walk the next day with out too many aching muscles!
