Sunday was a peach of a day weatherwise and cousin Kaye came along for a walk without Moby. We headed down Prices Lane which runs north of the village beside the Priest's house. There was a chorus of birds singing and the blackthorn blossom was in full bloom in the hedges. We passed a number of small paddocks and fields before we reached the entrance to Ryans callow. Flowers in bloom included some primroses, cowslips, daisies, dandelion and Blue Gentia which I used to call The Mayflower.
When we reached the river we headed back towards the new jetty at the bridge. There are four fences to cross all friendly with crossings near the river. Good views of the back of the village looking from the north. Circular walkway of about two miles that will improve with a little more drying.
Our next outing is south of the village to visit the old jetty, swingbridge, Magazine, Rachra Castle site, fieldworks, Sewerage outlet, The Cut and Borranagh Callow coming back by the Boranagh Lane beside the police station. Want to join us ?
