A good forecast and the chance to get out with Mrs R now i was on my summer hols, saw us heading to the pretty Lincolnshire Wolds village of Tealby to carry out a lovely walk which we have had the pleasure of completing on a couple of occasions before.
It starts in Tealby village and then heads across the rolling landscape of the Wolds to Castle Farm, then Bedlam Plantation and onto Risby and then the lovely 'Ramblers Church' at Walesby before returning along the bottom of the hillside you have just walked and back into Tealby village.
The walk takes in some lovely scenery and history, from All Saints church in Tealby, to the ruins of Castle Farm and finally the lovely All Saints church, affectionately known as the 'Rambler's Church' due to the unique stained glass window situated in the church depicting ramblers and cyclists enjoying the lovely countryside which was donated to the church by local ramblers in 1951.
The church has also some interesting history, with the foundations being built in the 12th century and nearby a roman villa was excavated in 1861 and coins were discovered there from AD320.
After this superb walk we had some lovely food at the Kings Head in Tealby, the oldest thatched pub in Lincolnshire, dating from 1367.
After our lovely food we walked around the village and up Tealby Thorpe, with its blue house, old mill and ford beside the River Rase.
The following are my favourite photos from our day.
