Church Family Walk - Easter Monday, 13th April 2004
On Easter Monday, a group of nine adults and two children from Christ Church and Saint Peter's started out on a countryside walk.
We started at Mountsorrel, and walked along the River Soar to Rothley, where the children headed home with their parents. The rest of of us headed on through Rothley, Swithland, Quorn and Barrow-upon-Soar, before returning to Mountsorrel. We covered around 14 miles in total.

The weather was sunny, but cool, ideal for walking, and had some great views of the Soar Valley and Charnwood countryside. The views of Charnwood forest and Bradgate from Swithland were particularly good, as very little urban development was evident. It was also a pleasure to see the steam trains heading up and down the Great Central lines on Easter Monday.
