We have never been able to find a way of reaching the style to cross the road without having to take the rather grotty route that goes under the bridge. It seems impossible as the road is fenced on both sides. We followed a route that we have used several times before along the disused railway. The picture of the reflections of the trees gives some idea as to the extent of the water in the forest after the last few days rain.
We walked around the road and back towards the Tea Rooms looking for a place where we could cross the fence. We noticed a horse rider taking the track under the road to our east and thought we would check this out for future reference. The answer is you need a horse or very long waders.
Lunch at the Harvester, Cat and Fiddle, at Hinton Admiral rounded the day off nicely.
