The rain eventually passed so I took the opportunity to take Rocco on a final walk through the Polstead footpaths this afternoon.

Dollops Wood was its usual lovely self:

The on to Polstead village and the pond:

And past the church on the hill:

And then reached the path along the River Box valley, with the classic trees along the riverbank:

We then crossed over the river and Rocco had a chance to have a swim. Then it was the climb back up the hill following a really nice footpath that I don’t think I’d used before:

The next footpath crossed a ploughed field, and unusually I had to use the compass on the phone to find the correct direction as no one had walked it since!

Then through the lovely woods above Scotland Place:

A lovely walk, mostly in the sunshine!
