Mon 9 March 2020 - 10 miles - CIRCULAR FROM WELWYN NORTH STATION - Leader: Graham H

A 100 foot high viaduct, it frightened a 31 year old Queen Victoria. Panoramic views, fields, woods, a stately home (Hoo lived there) and the village of Tewin. No very lengthy climbs and no stiles. As an optional extra a private lake, swans and ducks, within a wood, some seats just 15 minutes from the station. Be prepared for mud. Lunch: Picnic in a wood. Bring a waterproof cushion of some sort.
