Cocking Long Walk 13th September 2017

This was another walk from Cocking, cleverly changed from a recent similar walk.The forecast was fairly dire with storm Aileen expected to cause havoc in the Midlands and rain forecast in our area. Our leader made sure we were either in the pub or else near Cocking Church when it was raining, otherwise we had an almost dry walk. Excellent lunch in The Unicorn and time to look at the scenery in Cocking, with striking statues and the History Column. Thanks, Marian and Jane for photos
