Still a lovely day, so we went for a local walk this afternoon. After a bit of track, there’s a nice wood with paths through – very pleasant in the shade!

Then a field of sheep:

And after a few more paths, we reached the River Rother:

A bit further along the river, we headed inland and encountered a very overgrown path with lots of nettles – not good when you’re wearing shorts…

And further on, an orchard, which was lovely but impossible to find the actual path through so we had to detour around the edges:

This took us to the village, and we found the pub, which unfortunately closed a year ago.

After a quick topup in the village shop, we went to the Wittersham Sports and Social Club. Uninspiring from the outside, and we had to sign in, but enjoyed excellent beer (Tonbridge Coppernob on cask) and cider – and Rocco got some dog biscuits.

We then checked out the village war memorial and park – all very neat and tidy!

then weaved our merry way back:

A lovely walk, helped by a bit of breeze to keep us cool.
