Cambridge Society Berkshire Branch 2003 - Friday
First we met up at the Wenlock Edge Inn near to the market town of Wenlock. Had an excellent baguette for lunch and a pint of Hobsons. Afterwards there was a geological walk along the Wenlock ridge for the able people, and a visit around Wenlock and the priory for those not so able. I had to succumb to the leg and do the walk around town and the priory.
The town is very quaint and has some individual non chain shops. The Farmers market was in operation when we passed through in the morning. There was an outfitters for clergy outside the priory, some nice basket shops and grocers.
The walk around the town was intersting, the priory was a bit tedious with the long stories on the audio guide. I was looking for the fast forward button.
Afterwards we went back and booked into the hotel in Telford, had drinks, dinner and a presentation of the local geology by Peter Worsley, professor from Oxford University.
