Today I went to help beat the bounds of the Leyton Lammas Lands. I did the first bit, the southern section. This is usually done second, so I hadn't done it before. It is the most accessible section for pushchairs, people relying on walking sticks, etc, so they decided to do it first this year. Others went on to do the upper section which would involve fence climbing.
Large group of us ambling along in the sunshine, learning a bit of history, bumping the heads of two youngsters at strategic points. A lot of people there that I know slightly.
One section, that used to be a pitch and putt, that was used for camping over the Olympics, is going to be closed off and the Lea Valley Authority are going to build holiday cabins there. The Authority has allowed lots of bits of encrouchment over the years - which is why these annual walks are so important. At the end of the walk we were asked to use our local open spaces - use it or lose it!
I did have a photo. Recently I couldn't get a photo from my computer to my blog. I can't get this photo from my camera to the computer! I might have another go later.
