Walk Report
12 people in all,11 C&D LDWA members and 1 Moorland Rambler (Sam Hughes) took part in this circular walk from Norsworthy Bridge car park. A start 0f 08.30 was made (from the time this walk was first put on the LDWA website) to maximise use of available daylight. This proved to be the right decision as though all members carried a torch and high viz, we arrived back at the car park at 5pm. Just before sunset. One member, Pearl sank into the mire up to her waste at Erme Head Pits. I pulled her out and some spare dry clothing, carried by other group members was used for the rest of her walk. Lunch was taken at Harford Church. Although the start time had always been given as 08.30 I recieved a phone call at 09.00 from Sebastian a non-member who had signed up through "meetup", stating he thought it to be a 09.00 start. I have since checked the Meetup group site and confirmed that the times of 08.20 for a 08.30 start had been published there also.Other Files
