Holmer Green and Shardeloes

It seemed that Saturday morning would have the best weather of the weekend so, after a brief visit to the Ted Baker section in the House of Fraser, we set off for Little Missenden to start our walk.

Rosie's route took us through the village and up to Holmer Green and then generally eastwards. We had several options for the route down towards the Misbourne and, because we were making good progress, we took the longest. This took us down to Shardeloes Lake. The HS2 plans have a tunnel going under here and, apparently, there's a worry that this will the acquifer. The return route was along the Misbourne Valley.


As we'd parked outside The Crown, it as rather too convenient to pop in for a pint and a sandwich.
