Rainy Day Women

Codsall and Wolverhampton Branch are walking stage 8 of the Staffordshire way over two days.  We undertook our first walk, the shorter section, on 2nd July.  This walk followed the pathway from Brewood to Codsall.  The weather was wild and wet but we really enjoyed our ramble through the countryside. We spotted a grey heron, geese and goslings, lots of ducks, horses and sheep along the way. We battled with weeds up to our shoulders and mud up to our ankles but in the true spirit of NWR we pressed on and achieved our target. We all agreed it was a good afternoon with good company and are looking forward to completing our walk on Monday 30th July and hopefully the weather will have improved by that time!

  1. Cheerful account despite the cheerless weather along a lovely stretch of the Staffs Way. Fingers crossed for better conditions on your second stretch!
