Places featured in the Walking Routes pages plus selected other walks.

Friday 27 March

10.37 mi

16.69 km

From home to home, via St Denys Road, Cobden Bridge, Riverside Park, Mansbridge, A27, Wide Lane, Lakeside Country Park, Stoneham Lane, Chestnut Avenue, Nightingale Avenue, Magpie Lane, Fleming Park, Passfield Avenue, Nightingale Avenue, Chestnut Avenue, Stoneham Lane High Road (Swaythling) and Portswood Road.

The COVID-19 outbreak means that some of my normal routes are not currently available. Walks will be more local or may include different parts of the surrounding area so that I can avoid crowded places and the use of public transport.

The diary consists of a page for each month. You can go to the current month by clicking the photo on the left. Clicking a photo below takes you to that month's page. You can also select a month from the column on the far left.

Other years can be selected from links further down this page.

You can also follow my walks on facebook and twitter

and I'm on Garmin Connect and MapMyWalk.
