There were 8 of us on the MIRTH walk this month. We walked through the Parks of Leamington. The spring flowers are emerging and made a cheerful display along the way.
You can walk from Newbold Comyn to Jephson Gardens then cross the road to Pump Room Gardens before arriving in Victoria Park. The round trip is about 3 miles all through parks or green spaces.
Richard pointed out various points of interest, some members had there own stories to tell of the 1998 Easter floods when the town was divided into two when the River Leam burst its banks and flooded the bridges.
Something new always seems to be happening in Leamington. In the Jephson Gardens a team were hard at work installing a statue by the sculptor John Bridgeman recently donated to the town by his family.
After our walk, it was good to have lunch at the Newbold Comyn Arms.
