Introduction
My mum and I are walking the London LOOP long-distance path, which unsurprisingly goes in a loop around London, one section at a time. This time the route took us from Bexley to Petts Wood.
By the River Cray
After walking out of Bexley and past the NatWest Extreme Cricket marquee (I kid you not), we climbed a hill where there'd been a landfill, and descended to the River Cray. It was a pleasant park, but the riverside was pretty crowded; there were kids playing, and about ten thousand people walking an average four dogs each.
Church
After some time we eventually left the river, heading toward a church, the name/saint of which I can't remember. Ho hum.
Town
The church marked the edge of a town, some of which was twee and some of which was anything but.
Woods
The route took us through a couple of woods. We got lost at one point where we should've gone the way I said, but didn't. Hah!
...and a railway bridge
Actually, there were three footbridges over different railway lines; for some reason this part of the country appears to be very well supplied. But I only took pictures of one.
With so many railways around it wasn't surprising that shortly after that we managed to find a station and head for home.
