Seven walkers took part in a 4½ circular walk in the Blagdon/ Rickford/Burrington area. This walk has been done before by the Footpaths Group but to make the most of the fine weather and the views across Blagdon Lake it was decided to go in the reverse direction.

Starting from the rear car park at the Queen Adelaide PH the walk descended across fields and lanes to Rickford for the first of several short refreshment stops. It was then a steady uphill climb to higher ground with further good views.

The circuit was completed via marked footpaths and a narrow lane to Blagdon Village centre and the Queen Adelaide where a welcome lunch awaited.
