Lower Heyford and a Walk

There is a lovely walk from Lower Heyford up to Steeple Aston through the fields. It doesn’t take long, but Boots loves it.  We went on Sunday afternoon – north up the canal to the lift bridge (Mill lift bridge), turn a sharp left, through the gate and there it all begins. Over the Cherwell on a beautiful bridge:

Through a line of trees:

and up through the fields:

 

Boots rather liked the railway bridge and stopped to see whether a steam train would go through:

 

Eventually he gave up and came running down the field to meet me, only to be intercepted by a great excitement:

Lower Heyford is a beautiful place to moor.  There is a wood pecker somewhere beyond the other side of the canal:

and it is just so peaceful.
