We are on our way south to Folkestone ling drive down and stopping for a couple of nights at Newark on Trent . We had a short easy walk this morning to see castle from other side of river . and went to Sconce park this afternoon.Lovely walks where they do parkrun. Onto Folkestone tomorrow more walking if hip stands up ok . On my photos attached there is supposed to be a squirrel on left corner of wood, but it isn’t on my pic collage.

I walked there in February with my sister who used to live there. Interesting old market town.

I have no sense of direction and all streets look same to me, just as well MrD here. Have been trying Google maps and that has helped me. 😀

I went to Newark on Trent many years ago when I was 19!

Very friendly place and clean. Airbnb very central as well.

That place looks gorgeous! Love the wooden bench! Nice!

Is that a pony in the middle of the road? Huh... not something I'd get to see in my city-environment (nor on my treadmill 😂). The sculpted wood looks great, am curious as to the squirrel now. And I love buildings like that old ruin you post. A friend of mine is a diver and she showed me yesterday a picture of this thing that is above water an old nice looking ruin and is under water a stone quarry. Love things like that! Enjoy your walks!
