Walking in Berkshire, Oxfordshire and the Thames Valley
We met at 10:30 on rather an autumnal, misty morning for a walk through Sulham Woods then back to the small Purley Barn for lunch and the AGM. It was a great event, lovely walk, good things to eat and drink and the AGM. Read more in the Reports Section.

Due to deep mud and flooding on many of the Rights of Way in the Chapel Row/Bucklebury Common area it has been necessary to cancel the 7.5 mile walk from CHAPEL ROW at 10.30 on Sunday 8 March 2015.
PLEASE NOTE there is still a Group walk on 8 March. There is a 5-mile walk in our Walks Programme from ARBORFIELD CROSS at 10.30.
Because of tree felling in the beech woods near Nuney Green the route of the walk from Goring Heath on Saturday 21 February 2015 has been changed. The new route has no hills but there are 3 stiles.
