Walk 9: Abingdon and Sutton Courtenay
Once we've finished the Chilterns and Thames Valley Walks we'll turn to another unfinished project. Today's walk has been a small preview of what's to come: walking alongside the River Thames.
I hope that the path is in better condition when we return though. At one point east of Abingdon, so many of the planks of the bridge across a culvert had rotted away that crossing the remaining ones required a steady balance, careful footwork and just a little courage.
