Sikh Trail Car Park
​Silent Woman ★★★★☆
We started off from the Sika Trail car park on a cool but bright morning on a  grassy track that was drier than we might have expected.  This was good news as there had been a lot of rain in the last few days.  In fact we found our way around most of the edge of this section of the forest without any difficulty.
It was a very pleasant almost flat walk with no styles and good ground underfoot.  So good that we kept up a pretty good pace for the whole of the walk.  Having left the car park at 9:50 we were back by 13:20 and in good time to try the Silent Woman for lunch.  We had, of course, stopped for our customary refreshment break, which we took on the edge of the Morden Bog Reserve where Ray shared his mince pies with us.
While most of the items on their menu are quite pricey for a quick lunch their Additional Lunchtime Menu is very reasonable.  Ray and Peter had the Brunch (£8.95) which was excellent in all respects.  The service service was good and friendly and the pub was comfortable with a good atmosphere.
