16 members took part in this scenic walk on our
usual warm, sunny day. Ground conditions were wet and muddy in many
places, especially around the styles. We were surprised to see Honorary
member Bob Holland also lunching at the Black Boy with Ronnie Corbett.

simplest approach is to take the Scraptoft turning and
follow the directions from Scraptoft to Hungarton.

of the Leicestershire countryside and Quenby Hall amongst several
other country piles..
