One of my favourite
places to visit at this time of the year is Marks Hall gardens & arboretum. The autumn
colours this year are superb.

Hanningfield Reservoir
The weather on Wednesday 10th was a reminder of our summer. Temperature
at 23c and bright sunshine, we just had to visit this woodland and reservoir.
The water level tells the tale of last summer's weather, it is clear to see,
the reservoir has just 48% of its full level & they have stopped pumping
water to the system. Anyway, we came to see the wooden sculptures celebrating
the Wind in the Willows. All the characters are there, badger, ratty and of
course toad. Children are encouraged to take brass rubbings of the name plates.
Details can be found here. We will return when the autumn colours gain some
strength.

Broxbourne Woods Sculpture Trail
A week or so ago Carol and I took a walk through a woodland that is about fifteen miles away from my home. I have been meaning to visit this place for some time. I intend to revisit again when the autumn colours are in full glory. Their leaflet can be seen here
