This month we walked around Kenilworth Common. It was good to welcome two MIRTHers to their first walk with us.
Richard had planned a route that passed through the common crossing the railway and over to abbey fields.
We walked across Kenilworth Common enjoying the autumn colours and passing a few interesting industrial remains from a bygone era.
There is always something new to learn about Kenilworth, one MIRTH member pointed out a row of houses in Lower Ladyes Hill that was used as a location in the film “Nativity!”.
Some discussion was had around the Windmill. Was it a windmill or a disguised water tower? When I was back home, some research revealed it was built 1778 as a windmill and later converted to a water tower before becoming a house around 1974.
After a 4 mile walk, we were all ready for Lunch at The Tiltyard where we were pleased to be joined by another few members and enjoyed lunch and conversation.
