There was still snow in some parts of the woods.  The Plough at Coldharbour is a nice country pub with decent food and a log fire.

On a beautiful day in late-summer, a walk from Dorking to Guildford, mainly along the North Downs Way. Pictures taken with a Pentax zoom lens (as an experiment). More pictures here.

This was the second time this year that I walked from Dorking to Guildford, mainly along the North Downs Way.  It’s essentially uphill for the first half and then downhill for the second half. A surprising treat at the end was the stunning view overlooking Pewley Down, which is well worth a revisit. I bumped into an American family on the walk who were from Boston and living in the UK for three years.  They were loving our weather!  I entered the centre of Guildford via a very narrow alleyway – I think there may be a lot more to Guildford than the main streets!
