ONCE YOU APPROACH WALTON BRIDGE IGNORE YOUR SATNAV. THIS CAR PARK HAS NOT GOT A POSTCODE. SEE THE MAP BELOW. The best and nearest I can find which will get you on the approach to the bridge is KT12 1AR.

If you join me on this 4.5/5 mile flat circular walk, I will show you a couple of Blue Plaques, an old Manor House, part of the town centre, an interestingly named island, a long lake, some nice fields and horses, and of course, the Thames as we circle Desborough Island.
As we are by water much of the way, if the sun is out it is glorious, so fingers crossed for the weather and a good turn out from yourselves.
We start from a FREE car park with a cafe and toilets which will hopefully be open, and go into town and alongside a lovely lake and onto the Thames and around Desborough Island and back to the car.
Once we return at 8pm ish you can join me and Lynn for an evening in Bagster House where an excellent four piece band (Backtrack) will be playing from 8.30 until around 11.15. In their break, you can play bingo or have a go at the raffle. You can also order some baked potatoes, hot dogs and a couple of other items and I can let you know that later. You can drive to the club in 2 minutes or walk in 5-10 minutes from Cowey Sale. I have 20 tickets available.
NO DOGS AND £4 PLEASE, £10 IF YOU WANT THE ENTERTAINMENT AS WELL. YOU WILL NEED TO PAY THE £10 IN ADVANCE IF YOU ARE DOING THAT.
I am not sure where the sat navs will take you, but basically, if you approach the bridge from Walton town centre, just as you are about to cross the bridge, Walton Lane is on your left, signposted to Cowey Sale and the car park is about 250 yards away. If you accidently cross the bridge, go round the mini roundabout and come back on yourself and turn right straight after crossing the bridge.
You can call me on 07395004461 if you get lost or are late. You can ask almost anyone when near as they will know where the bridge is. You can also easily catch up if you are a couple of minutes late.
