Took advantage of a Monday off work and some nice clear weather for a local-ish loop.


1. Old Wardour Castle. This one was quite tricky to find and the roads got a little bit dicey.

2. Sherborne Old Castle. Most unwelcoming gates!

3. Portland Castle.

4. Waggon & Horses Pub. Bit of a night arrival this one and I'd expected it to be a bit more lit up but it was up for sale so there went my plans for warm-up as it was fairly chilly by this point in the day.. Sorry for the poor picture quality - my camera phone flash wouldn't light up anything bigger than the car-park sign..

Took a ride up to Hertfordshire yesterday so on the way there and on the way back today I bagged the following tags:


1. The Black Bull, Ruislip

2. The Royal Oak, Watford Heath. Nice setting this one, just up the road from where I grew up!

3. The Old Sun, Harlington nr Dunstable

4. Berkhamsted Castle. I used to work in Berko for a couple of years back in the 90's. Happy memories of that town. I even stopped

by the local Simmonds bakers as it was lunchtime when I was there today and treated myself to my old regular lunch order of a doorstep sausage sarnie. Lovely!

5. Guildford Castle. I rode past the sign at the gate and it was a steep one-way so made do with this shot. Small and very well tended gardens around this one if that's your thing. I visited Guildford a lot in the early 90's but saw more evenings there and insides of bars as it was whilst visiting a friend at their Uni. I didn't do anything cultural like visiting a castle.. How fancy I have become.
