Members only – an evening walk at Berkswell

21/07/2020 By admin

Some of us on the committee think there may be members who would like to be walking together with others, but who haven’t been able to do so much since lockdown. If we provide an official Ramblers’ walk we have to advertise it, and perhaps bring along more people we don’t usually meet – so it seems better to make this an invitation event. If more than 10 members want to walk with us, we will consider repeating the event on a future evening. If the weather forecast becomes dire we’ll aim to rearrange during the following week.


So for Thursday 6th August we plan to set off from the roadside parking places opposite the Berkswell Reading Rooms (Meriden Road) CV7 7BB at 6.30pm. Janet L will lead 5 members clockwise, and John P will lead 5 more members anti-clockwise. Obviously, we’ll pass each other somewhere near midway, around Nailcote – we can keep socially distant throughout the walk.


The whole walk should be around 2 and a half hours so please bring some water; stout shoes should be sufficient, or boots. There are 30 gates (mostly metal) and 3 stiles on the route; many walkers won’t need to touch them all and it’s suggested that gloves or hand sanitiser are used where necessary. We should not share equipment or food; carrying a face covering is recommended in case of an incident.


If you’d like to come along please email janet@coventryramblers.org.uk by Monday 3rd August. Our reply will confirm if you’ve been included in one of the groups for the walk.
