Ardley, Cottered.

Went for a short, 30km, bimble this afternoon. I rode to Halls green, Luffenhall and then on to Cottered, where I sat in the churchyard to eat my lunch.

I then explored some very muddy bridleways which took me to Ardley, where I sat on the green for my afternoon snack. I decided to leave Benington for another day, so I rode past St Johns Wood (honest!) and across the front of Walkern Hall, before heading back down into the Beane Valley to Aston End and home.

I can not be bothered to write more so here are a few photos:

Corbel at Cottered church. Who is he?

Expecting wet conditions at The Place.

Peaceful bridleway.

Autumn colours.

Ardley is always photogenic.
